So would the solution I provided in an earlier email provide enough of a 
solution to satisfy your use case?

If you want generic debugging APIs exposed to content that would have a 
*lot* of security concerns.

So my question is, how much value would such an API add, compared to the 
other solutions that are available, compared to the complexity of 
implementing this securely in a UA. Especially considered the total lack 
of any other debugging-specific APIs in UAs.
