I have a thought on this. 

Now why something won't build, perhaps they can help however... Let me say
something about Javascript in general. 

I spent the last four days trying to implement a fairly simple idea into
code, and a single misplaced curly bracket renders MILES of my error
handling code useless. I am forced to block out HUGE chunks of code, and
reintroduce them one at a time to make sure they aren't the cause with a
combination of try-catch and debug confirm statements everywhere. So with
Javascript, error in line blahblah messages just don't appear in all
circumstances.

One thing that helps me greatly for some debugging close to a binary
debugger for languages like freepascal and c++ is FireBug, and ADDON for
firefox. That thing is simply put: AWESOME. 

I'm not one of the qooxdoo developers, but adding even more weight in code
for something that users like yourself can easily cause, just means more
time being invested in an area that I think would be better spent knocking
out CORE bugs and keeping the code base as lean as possible. (Frankly I'm a
fan of 0.7 - I think the new way is a bit cumbersome myself... much prefer
one source file with everything, and use what you like when you like
paradigm).
