Great video! I am interested in seeing debugging (break, step in the code etc) within the browser and not within the x-windows tools. Is that possible?
@ikemstar You would probably use the image for most local coding and debugging but the web browser provides an alternative for some situations. For example, if you were running the image on a remote virtual server (e.g., a production application on Slicehost), the overhead of logging onto the server and getting a GUI interface might be excessive (and your server might be a text-only Linux system with no X Window System available). In that case having the GUI managed by the web is much better.

Really interesting. Under what scenario would you debug in the browser vs the image? It's an interesting workflow
