[Laszlo-dev] Proposal to merge r13964 - Make the component debugger window work in DHTML to 4.4. branch

[P T Withington]

Hm.

If you believe you have a partial fix, that might be worth getting in  
now, if you think the full fix is going to be a long way away.  Right  
now the debugger is kind of useless.

I also think I am seeing a bunch of issues with the component debugger  
not responding to keystrokes that should be associated with commands:   
return, up/down arrow, tab.  Do you see this?  Should I file a  
separate bug?
