My local storage db with a lot of WebInspector entries

While using Safari 9 Beta on OS X El Captain, and inspecting a website, if I hit Commd+R to reload the page, it's always switching back to "Resources".

I've been told that my file__0.localstorage file might be useful for you guys to reproduce, so I will be attaching that.

This is happening 100% of the time consistently on any website that I inspect. (tested on search.yahoo.com and nytimes.com before submitting).

I am pretty sure this regressed by http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/186466. Before that we didn't force tab siwtches unless there was a user action.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Inspect about:blank
2. Select any non-Inspector tab
3. Evaluate: "//# sourceURL=test.js" in the console to create an "Extra Script"
4. Reload
  => switches to Resources tab.

* NOTES
=> WebInspector.DebuggerManager.Event.ScriptsCleared event is fired
  => ResourceSidebarPanel._scriptsCleared
    => SpecialFolder.removeChild
      => removeChild does not suppress select, newly selected tree element gets select
        => showContentView switches tab

This pretty much affects anyone with a Safari extension content script.
