I've installed the latest firebug (1.5a21). I think I finally understand it's behavior, now that the annotation bug is fixed. But the UI is really weird.
First off, you have to make sure that NEITHER 'on for all webpages' NOR 'off for all webpages' is checked. Yes, checking one unchecks the other, but you can uncheck both, too. Secondly, you'll notice that if you click the little bug in the lower right hand corner of the status bur when it's greyed out, will turn it on and expand the firebug window. However, clicking the bug again will only minimize it, not turn it off. Yes, it's a bad design practice. But bear with me. When you click the bug, you've enabled firebug for that domain, as far as I can tell. If you want to turn it off, you need to click the little 'off' button you can see once it's expanded. One additional weirdness - if you change tabs, firebug stays open, but it's still really attached to the first tab. This can often confuse you into thinking you're debugging some other tab, but you're not.
