Just curious, but with the latest Firebug 1.6 or 1.7, what happens if
you use the toString() function set on the function of interest? I
haven't tested it, but try using a myFunc.toString=function(){return
"Some name";}.

I'm an advocate of that idea. But there is a lot of work to:

1. Set things up. Code and Issues, etc. I know you can use svn2git or
similar, and you can copy issues out of Google Code and put them in
GitHub programatically, but it is a lot of work to do *correctly*.

2. Get Firebug devs up to speed on git. I'm only so far as commit/pull/
push. To use it correctly, we would have to learn it really well.

3. Deal with pull requests. Have pull requests automatically trip a
run of all tests with the proposed patch, etc. Of course, there may
not really be many pull requests, but if that is so, then why move in
the first place?
