I wonder if focus can serve as a context too. What if DevTools is opened
and has focused? The "main screen" would still be the content page of
course, but if the user has focused, say, the debugger, then it might be
really cool to have debugger buttons in the touch bar.

A while ago, I had filed this bug to gather ideas for DevTools:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1320043

   - In the debugger, having step in/out/over, resume, pause buttons would
   be very useful.
   - In Responsive Design Mode, maybe something to resize the viewport.
   - In the animation inspector, a scrubber to move through animations.
   - In the inspector's DOM view, buttons to add, delete, edit, hide,
   highlight nodes.
