As mentioned in bug 740546, the chrome debugger needs a way to be notified when new JavaScript modules get loaded. Perhaps we could apply nsIObserverService here.

If the observer service is used, won't the debugger miss a few execution frames of the newly-loaded module since observations events fire on a later tick?
We've implemented Debugger.prototype.onNewGlobalObject, which fires synchronously, like other debugger hooks.
