Viewing everything together is nice, but sometimes I'd like to drill down into just Network or CSS. I don't want to turn everything off, because maybe there will be something interesting in the logging too. And clicking all those checkboxes is kind of annoying. Maybe I want a tab for each group, or maybe I want to be able to uncheck network for a minute to hide all that noise and then pop it back into place. Or maybe I want to be able to bookmark a filter like (network|css|log) and have a tab for that.

this should be possible using the filter box. Type Network or CSS and it should show only those types of messages. I believe this is a dupe but will leave it for the Console gurus to mark.

Yeah, I originally wanted to make clicking the category name turn on or off all the associated checkboxes. Wouldn't be hard to bring that back, I don't think; I'll make a note of it. > Maybe I want a tab for each group, or maybe I want to be able to uncheck > network for a minute to hide all that noise and then pop it back into place. > Or maybe I want to be able to bookmark a filter like (network|css|log) and have > a tab for that. How about being able to right click on, say, a network message and choose "View Only Network Messages"?

(In reply to comment #2) > How about being able to right click on, say, a network message and choose "View > Only Network Messages"? Bug 583359 does most of what I'm looking for. Turning that menu click into the corresponding search/filter might be a good way to teach people how to use the filter.
