(Whiteboard: [slowscript])

While developing, it's easy to write infinite loops (directly or indirectly). There is dialog that prevents the loop from running for too long, but it seems that it's the same time for web content and while developing. It would be nice if, in devtools, devs could set a smaller time to avoid accidental infinite loops from being too annoying. Credit where it's due: https://github.com/mozilla/webpagemaker/issues/626#issuecomment-10727001

this is a setting for the slowscript dialog which isn't currently part of the debugger. We could still take a look at it. filter on BLACKEAGLE.
