Details

If I start a webapp (e.g. twitter) it shows in "adb shell ps" as:

u0_a72    11036 160   1047568 114832 ffffffff 00000000 S org.mozilla.fennec_kats:org.mozilla.fennec_kats.WebApp0

However jimdb will still attach to org.mozilla.fennec_kats by default. I didn't see any easy way to make it attach to the webapp process instead; I had to basically hack feninit.py's _getPackageName function to return "org.mozilla.fennec_kats:org.mozilla.fennec_kats.WebApp0" as a hard-coded value for it to work.
Thanks for filing the bug! I've been wanting to fix this too, for a Gingerbread web app crash that I've been seeing.

Just pushed web app support. Now it asks you which package name to use when a web app is running.
