I filed and put a patch up on:
 Add Private WKPreferences API for developer 
extras (show inspector)

You are correct that currently the only supported way to inspect a WKWebView is 
through Safari with an entitlement in your app (see the WWDC talk for more 
information).

The WKWebView API allows toggling WebCore's Settings via the WKPreferences 
interface (available on WKWebViewConfiguration).  Nothing currently exists for 
the developer extras setting. It should be easy to add plumbing for a new 
setting to toggle the Developer Extras Enabled setting at least as a private 
API.

[webkit-dev] WKWebView Inspector in my own app

[Koen Bok]

I am looking how to show the inspector in my own mac desktop app with
WKWebViews.

I think I need to initialize an XPC or http connection to a WKWebView and
pass it to a new inspector instance, and then show it.

Can anyone maybe point me in the right direction?

PS. I also made a Stack Overflow question for this:
