Firefox is the only browser which preserves network data after page reload / change. It is extremely useful if you want to get all information about form data that was sent. Firefox logged network requests to console until now, recently it received Network inspector. Similar functionality to allow preserving network info will be nice. Like, currently inspector preserves previous console log, but adds ----- line after it.

One big issue with this is the fact that the backend does not retain the resources between loads. So we wont be able to get source for previous loads. (Unless we change the backend to keep that data around and eat memory.) Otherwise, this is a neat idea.

TBH, this use case will be superseded by web replay someday. Until then, I guess this bug can stay around.

Saving *load* information is much cheaper than saving resource data. I think persisting old data and making it italicized or something is doable.
