Editing a property without quotes should add them if possible

[Anthony Ricaud]

When editing a string property, people may not add quotes. After trying the expression entered, the inspector should try again with quotes.

+            var result = WebInspector.panels.scripts.evaluateInSelectedCallFrame(expression, false);
+        else
+            var result = InspectorController.inspectedWindow().eval(expression);
+        return result;

no need to store in a variable, just return in the two places.

+            var result = this.evaluateExpression("(" + expression + ")");
             // Store the result in the property.
             this.parentObject[this.propertyName] = result;

Put a empty line between the var result and the comment.

+                var result = this.evaluateExpression('"' + expression + '"');
+                // Store the result in the property.
+                this.parentObject[this.propertyName] = result;

You should escape double quotes in the expression, otherwise it will fail unexpectedly. Also put a empty line between the var result and the comment.

r- for now until the string is escaped. Just do expression.escapeCharacters("\"");
