Right now there is Firebug for Firefox, and Firefox Lite for Chrome,
IE, Opera et al.  The rearchitecture is intended to allow more of the
core code to be available across browsers.  Right now, much of Firebug
itself is inherently tied to Firefox, and not portable elsewhere.

I'd call a rewrite for portability and extensibility *very* wise.  I'd
like to be able to use Firebug in any browser, and have it look and
act substantially the same, with the same feature set available.  As
browsers develop and improve, and add support for more emerging web
standards like HTML5, CSS3, and more recent additions to JavaScript,
this becomes more possible, if you have a portable and flexible code
base on which to build.
