I tried this in FF 3.6.5pre and I saw no problem.

Based on how Firebug works, I think this is not very likely to turn
out to be a Firebug bug. Could be a FF 3.6.4 issue on Mac? Can you
reproduce it if you install Firebug in a new Firefox profile?

its actually the latest beta of Firefox Sync (aka weave) that causes
this problem
