I'm having problems getting this to work. I've got an extension up and running and can see it calling my shouldCreateContext function. But returning true from it doesn't always open up firebug. Am I missing something? Do I need to do all the annotation stuff?
Also, the Firebug.URLSelector doesn't have a showUI function so I didn't implement that function.
