889361 - Stop choosing arbitrary global object in WebconsoleActor.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 880511

(DevTools :: Console, defect)

Description

[Alexandre Poirot [:ochameau]]

In various experiments (device support, simulators) about connecting tab actors to new targets, I often had to workaround the arbitrary selection of the global scope being done in WebConsoleActor:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/devtools/server/actors/webconsole.js?force=1#68
The workaround was to always pass an iframe and never pass a global object.
I think that the parent actor should control the global object the webconsole is going to use. For example:
  this._window = aParentActor.contentWindow;
And even in the case of the global console, I think the parent actor should still control it.
