There seems to be a general class of problems in webkit where pausing JS execution in one tab/frame/window causes odd effects on the JS execution in other tabs/frames/windows. (On my copy of Safari for example, pausing at a breakpoint and then switching to another tab showing Google search results yields a totally broken page, seemingly because the search-as-you-type feature's JS code isn't executing).

I don't know if this is fixed in newer browser builds -- my copy of Chrome seems to have far fewer problems like this, and from looking at the Dev Tools UI it's clear it's a newer overall build than the Chromium that we're using.

Yeah, the Chrome/V8 code in cef is a bit old. This is a concern - if we stick with cef, how are we going to keep on top of chrome releases?

This should be part of a native shell user story
