Ok, I give up. How do I get the style editor to work like Firebug so I can test/tweak styles on the fly? I'd assume you wouldn't be advocating this if it has a read-only style inspector, so where am I missing a way to modify those?
The live style tweak is by far the most used feature in Firebug for my team.

- masklinn 16y agoThe cost of one refresh no, the cost of a dozen refresh and the associated context switches as you swap between your browser and your editor yes. Usually when you're editing stuff in Firebug it's because you're trying, nudging a pixel here, a shade of gray there, trying to get the "right" values to yield the effect you want. Having to go back to the editor is a pain, just as it was before in-browser debuggers, when you had to go back to the editor and add alert() traces all over it.
