…debug In firefox-devtools/vscode-firefox-debug#393 I've found out, that the possibility of debugging extensions using an external program is not even mentioned at all here. I guess at least such a minimal version like this would be useful. The way how to do it is then documented there.

The VSCode extension seems official and was the only one I could find ad-hoc, so this seems good enough for a start at least for me.
