I am 100% in agreement here and it si beyond my understanding why the FF people would do "retire" firebug. I have said many times that in may years of development workI can count on 1 hand the people who use Chrome or Safari (or any Microsoft) dev tools as their *primary* tool. Only Firefox - but now, who knows. Wish and hope they have someone who will read this and other similar comments.
