Details

Clicking on a network request in the Web Console opens a new Inspect Network Request window. The problem is that the window opened is not active (has no focus). Even though it opens on top of the browser window. This is inconvenient because many times you just want to browse through a bunch of requests and then Cmd-W to close them. Now you will accidentally close the browser window or tab.
Summary: The Inspect Network Request does become active when opened → The Inspect Network Request does not focus when opened
Summary: The Inspect Network Request does not focus when opened → The Inspect Network Request window does not focus when opened
The bug still exists in Nightly as of Jun/23. But it has changed a bit. When you manually activate window by clicking in it's title bar and then try to close it with Command-W, it just beeps and does not go away.
