I saw his screenshots, and the first thing I thought was: Awsome! I tested it a bit, and I think that there are some tweaks t do (maybe the main tabs height now is too much, or the tabs are short :P), but it's shifting on a positive way. Another thing I would suggest, though I'm not the first to do it, it's that the inspect button should have more importance in the UI. It's one of the most important features of firebug!
