jsbridge currently has convenience debug addons: http://github.com/mozautomation/mozmill/tree/master/jsbridge/jsbridge/xpi/ This is bad for a few reasons: - having these extensions means that you're not testing OOTB firefox, you are testing firefox with these extensions - these extensions need to be updated manually - these extensions should be removed manually before rolling into mozilla central While there is convenience gained by the user in having these extensions available, we should find a way to provide this convenience without having these binary extensions replicated in our tree.

Instead - I can only talk for myself - I'm using --debug really often to debug issues in a fresh profile. > While there is convenience gained by the user in having these extensions > available, we should find a way to provide this convenience without having > these binary extensions replicated in our tree. Something I would be ok with, is when I could specify a local folder which has all the add-ons I want to have for debugging. All of those should be installed. I would assume --addons works already for this.
