== Firebug "linting" for portability problems ==
 
Lots of web developers use Firebug and Firefox for building their applications, but we want those apps to work well in other browsers as well. If Firebug knew about JS or CSS patterns that could cause problems in other browsers, it would make it much easier to have those applications work in all browsers.
 
== Add-on update helper tools for developers ==
 
As Firefox 3 gets ramped up, there are nearly 3000 add-ons that need to get updated to some degree. Write tools (web or XULRunner) to look in add-ons and find things that developers will need to update. You'll want to work with the Mozilla documentation and evangelism teams to figure out what you're looking for and what to recommend to users.
 
== Improve Tbeachball ==
 
Mike Shaver wrote a small patch to collect information on latency of event processing in Firefox. Extend that work to track which events are taking too long, and write tests that point out poor performance cases.
