I can confirm this. I'm working on getting some better STR.

When the browser hanged and it was unrecoverable. Also, I lost my session due to this :(

STR:
Open the Remote Debugger using the Web Developer menuitem.
Do not connect to the debugger
Open the Remote Debugger using the Web Developer menuitem.
Open the Remote Debugger using the Web Developer menuitem.
Connect to the debugger at localhost:6000 (the recommended value)
Accept the connection

Should hang before you can accept the now multiple incoming connections.

Retest with new toolbox UI, marking P2 as this is something of an edge case due to requiring too many connections.

Not actively working a patch for this, so I shouldn't be the assignee.

P5 as we are not investing in WebIDE atm.

This bug probably refers to the even older Tools -> Web Dev -> Connect page.  Unclear if it still applies, so probably could use another attempt to reproduce.
