Hi - I've been looking around on the web, but I can't find any discussion of a 
server-side API for firebug.

Is there interest in this? 
Has it been discussed somewhere I haven't looked? 
Is there a trivial reason not to bother that I've missed?

Here's my thought: adding a generic server-side component would make it 
super-easy to extend the usefulness of many plugins. My two motivating 
use-cases are: 

(1) using such an API to allow performance-measurement tools to log results; 
and 

(2) creating a firebug plugin to save edited javascript over the file on the 
server-side, or save, then commit to the server-side VCS, which would make 
firebug a 'real' IDE. 

Publishing an official API would allow devs to implement the
server-side component in their favorite server-side language without coupling 
the client-side firebug plugin to a particular server-side implementation.

Having server-side components already written and available would save that 
much time for plugin developers. 

Any thoughts? Thanks - Jared
