JavaScript Debugger reloads sources
The built-in JavaScript debugger seems to reload sources when viewing them. I'm working on a fairly old web application, and I'm unable to use the Firefox developer tools as a reload of the scripts (particularly inline scripts) results in the server sending a different response to the one which was originally sent.
Firebug does not exhibit this behavior - the Firebug script tab shows scripts as they were when the page was originally loaded.
Is there any way to prevent this behavior?

Do you get a "Loading..." briefly? This is what I got in version 32.
For now I would continue using Firebug, I asked in #webdev on IRC to see if I could get more info on this. Thank you for pointing it out.
Yes, "Loading…" appears briefly before the content is shown.
Do you think it's worth logging a bug at this stage?
Scott, I think it would be a great feature request as it looks like since we both can reproduce it is expected behavior. I think the component in bugzilla is the webtools. The "file a bug" link will take you to a page to search for the right one.
I think that would get you a better idea of the scope of the feature. Sounds cool to me :-)
