I know that Firebug creates the illusion that the history was cleared
between the pages when the domain changes. However, this is not the
case. The new domain creates a completely new 'context' or metadata
collection for the page. So the history isn't cleared, but rather a
new history is started and the old one is destroyed. Carrying
information across is easy enough, but Firefox does not make any
connection between the two pages so we need to come up with a way to
make the connection.

Notice that the seemingly obvious connection of "using the same tab"
does not work because sites and users can cause the two pages to
appear in different tabs and users can cause an unrelated sites to
take over a tab.

Firebug 1.4 has 'viral activation' that attempts to keep Firebug
active in just the kinds of cases where you don't want the history to
be cleared. So a good next step would be to add info to the Console
and/or net panel from the stored activation information. If anyone
wants to work on that let us know.
