I wish there was a reversible debugger for browsers. Would really love to have something like this ( perhaps something like a time travelling debugger like what elm gives is even better! ). Does anyone know of such a project for the browsers ?

From a previous blog post from someone on the Chrome team (that I cannot find), the debug build is unusable slow. Browsers are monstrously complex[0], and it would have to somehow deal with the complexities of multithreaded execution. Not impossible, but almost assuredly adds a performance overhead to an already slow debug build.
