Description Adrian Perez 2020-02-10 02:04:51 PST
Currently when popping out the Web Inspector panel into its own top level
window, its “transient-for“ property is set to the window that contains
the WebKitWebView. This forces the Inspector window to be stacked always
on top of the window that contains the web view, making it impossible
to bring the window with the web view to the front. This can be an issue
in small screens where there is not enough space to comfortable arrange
both windows in some way that both can be seen at the same time (e.g.
side-by-side).
