Details

1. Go to http://www.example.org/
2. Open the debugger
3. Make sure it is set to "Ignore exceptions"
4. Add a new watched expression: "foo.bar" (without quotes)
5. Set the debugger to "Pause on uncaught exceptions"
6. The debugger pauses: "ReferenceError: foo is not defined"
7. Remove the watched expression
8. Click ▷ (Resume)

Expected: the watched expression stays removed.
Result: the watched expression reappears.
Priority: -- → P2
This is now fixed in nightly.
The underlying problem is not fixed. Just a small change at step 5:

1. Go to http://www.example.org/
2. Open the debugger
3. Make sure it is set to "Ignore exceptions"
4. Add a new watched expression: "foo.bar" (without quotes)
5. Set the debugger to "Pause on all exceptions"
6. The debugger pauses: "ReferenceError: foo is not defined"
7. Remove the watched expression
8. Click ▷ (Resume)
Product: Firefox → DevTools

Oriol, can you still reproduce this? I think it might be fixed.

This bug relied on expression exceptions pausing the debugger. That was fixed in bug 1448431, so I can no longer reproduce this one.
