Synchronous communication is the deal-breaker. Browser vendors really don't
like synchronous I/O (because it makes the UI hang) so they're trying to
get rid of it. The closest thing might be a remote debugging API, but we
would also need it to be reentrant due to calls from JavaScript to Java and

I think sticking to ESR releases of Firefox could be a good approach for
keeping up with the release schedules. Even though it's not 100% trivial to
set up a system where you run the release channel and ESR at the same time,
it is still quite manageable and you only need to do it once.

As far as I know, there is no schedule for GWT 3.0, or 2.6 for that matter.
I was thinking perhaps we should continue with smaller maintenance

Hm maybe our app isn't large enough (~150 KLOC and growing) but we found
DevMode to work pretty well in Firefox. Reloading the app is a matter of
seconds and if you restart FireFox from time to time you can workaround the
current memory leak. Of course maintaining DevMode plugins is annoying but
