      Description

      A *lot* of people experience serious performance and memory issues when inadvertently using Firefox with Firebug enabled when using ICEfaces applications. This leads to confusion and false assumptions about ICEfaces performance characteristics and can often waste a lot of time trying to determine the cause for the performance issue.

      It would be very nice if we could detect the presence of Firebug at runtime and log a warning to the console to remind folks that Firebug is enabled to help prevent this sort of confusion.
