Drosera should have a mode where it does not break on js exceptions

This would allow Drosera to be a long-running process.  Instead, I have to quit it every time I'm not using it.  Silly.

ZOMG do I ever need this.  Acid3 debugging is basically impossible w/o this mode.  I might just have to break down and write it myself! :)

This would have been helpful on Bug 16644.

If we can't ignore all exceptions, it would be nice to be able to ignore specific exceptions so that those that occur within a loop may be easily ignored if they aren't interesting.

Closing since Drosera no longer exists and this isn't an issue in the Web Inspector's debugger.
Comment 4 Timothy Hatcher 2008-05-17 09:56:02 PDT 
Closing since Drosera has been replaced by the new Web Inspector debugger. Moving to the New Bugs component so the Drosera component can be closed and removed.
