"Inspect Element" function to select layer of website works works but the right click option to "HIDE WITH ADBLOCK PLUS" is missing

Please fix immediately, DO NOT IGNORE THIS BUG OR SAY IT'S NOT VALID

FirefoxV23, all adblock-related plugins updated

DevTools API changed in Firefox and so far I didn't have time to update our code. If you want to help, the relevant code is here: https://hg.adblockplus.org/elemhidehelp ... bserver.js. DevTools API documentation can be found under https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/doc ... evToolsAPI but I think that it is outdated.

This issue is actually the main reason why Element Hiding Helper hasn't been integrated into Adblock Plus so far. When I said that we would do it I assumed that the DevTools API will be stable, playing catchup here is no fun.

Is there any updates? We've being waiting for this fix since FF v.20...
Are Dev APIs finally stable?
And if they are not who is responsible? I'd like to get in touch... :x

But seriously, reworking the code to deal with API changes is not a quick fix; wait for Palant & Co. to announce it.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

Helper Button disappeared back at FF Ver 20. Well, we are now at Ver 24 --- Are DevTools API stable now? or we should not expect this fix at all?

Please update the code of element hider! I will stay at Firefox 18, till there is an update. I work daily with "Inspect element" --> Catch the right element using inspector --> "Hide with ABP"-Button. Therefore the button is really, really helpful. Catching the right element only with ABP function is difficult and time-consuming. In nowerdays filtering internet content is very important and necessary. Thus I look forward an update.
