Internet Explorer Dev Toolbar and SharePoint Customization

After working with the IE Dev Toolbar quite intensively over the last few weeks I have a request that I think most would agree would greatly enhance this already great powertoy, especially for SharePoint customization.

The request I have deals with the View Menu:

Right now you can select View -> Class and ID Information (see diagram below).

I have wished many times that I could display only ID or CLASS information and not both. In the case of SharePoint ID's are rarely (if at all) used for "CSS styling" they use 99.9% classes so having the ID's in there is really just making more of a mess than you would like.

While there are definately times you would like to see both I think it is safe to say that you would want the ability to see either seperately as well.

So Show ID's, Show Classes and Show ID's and Classes would be a great improvement to the VIEW Menu.

I wonder what it will take to get the developers attention on something like this. If anyone else thinks it's something that should be added feel free to spread the word - I'm sure if they see it, it will be implemented in a future build.
