Excellent! This is great news. >From a bit of exploring the first 2 features: "fs.firebug.menu.Log Activation URIs" doesn't seem to do anything (nothing ever seen in console regardless of activation status) "fs.Firebug.menu.On By Default" makes me wonder if the lowercase "firebug" above is a typo.
Will we be seeing an option for what I will attempt to describe as: "auto-start and run Firebug minimized for whitelist URLs"? (Here I'm attempting to name/summarize the problem that so many people are writing about regarding wanting Firebug to "just STAY on darnit" for their whitelist so they never have to think about activation again, just as they didn't have to in <=1.3. Also known as "conflation of visibility and activation" and "have to reload page & reproduce to catch logging" and a few other descriptions.) Again, thank you thank you for responding with this action and working group. (I won't even mention the "you used to be able to have multiple Firebug external windows open at once" issue as it's so secondary to getting to a place where I never have to think about activation and whitelists and can just get stuff done!)
