Stage 1: Definition
1. Feature overview
Paul Rouget created the initial design for this feature. The idea is a persistent toolbar at the bottom of the window that developers will use as an entry point to the tools.
2. Users & use cases
This feature will be used by web developers of all kinds.
Open the Style Editor
A user frequently wants to open the Style Editor (or some other tool that acts on the whole page, such as the Page Inspector or a network traffic view). With the Developer Toolbar available, they would be able to click a button on the toolbar to open the Style Editor.
Keyboard Access to Work with the Page
A user that prefers keyboard interaction over mouse interaction can use the Developer Toolbar to interact with their tools and their page.
