We should add a parser to the source editor to provide support for doing lookups (references, implementors, sends), flagging errors and other general awesomeness with code. I'm currently not sure if we want to do this in the source editor itself or in the debugger. I can think of good reasons to have it in both locations or access to a central script container that can do these types of lookups for us. Should probably use the SpiderMonkey Parser API for this. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SpiderMonkey/Parser_API

This way, we can reuse those methods everywhere, should we need 'em.

(bug 725399 would be the first thing to do, bug 732442 should follow)

This starts feeling like a meta bug :)

could be.

Patch in bug 762160 contains a Parser.jsm for the purpose of this bug.
