There should be difference between filtering buttons (CSS/JS/etc) with only few options selected and button without any option selected
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open 2 web consoles in two tabs
2. In the first console select only "Errors" in "CSS" button
3. In the second one deselect all options in "CSS" button
4. Compare "CSS" button in both consoles
Actual Results:
"CSS" button look same
Expected Results:
"CSS" button should look different
Here are 2 buttons which are in "off" state (CSS and JS). In one of them all options are turned off, in the second one "Error" is turned on - guess which one?

This makes sense to me. This would be nice to have, but I am almost sure this will not land in Firefox4. Patrick, Joe, what do you guys think?

I see gadjo's point, but I agree that we're not likely to get this into firefox 4. maybe a subsequent release.

There was a lot of discussion in bug 599498 about the filter button appearance, in particular https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599498#c18. The checkbox nature of the buttons isn't discoverable.
I think the very button-y appearance is misleading and also is hard to make tri-state.
One idea to solve this is to not make the filters checkboxes buttons, but to make the little color squares empty if the filter is applied, and colored if not. I think there might be room for a tri-state UI here too, half-colored or something similar. Something like this, a bit more check-boxy.
