The nice thing with coffeescript is that it complies to very readable Javascript with an almost one to one matching between lines in coffscript and lines in javascript. So as such it is pretty trivial to find the corresponding line in your coffescript file, given a line in your javascript file.

I agree that matching up line numbers is usually pretty trivial, although I also see how this complicates the workflow for people. To make matching lines even easier, I've written this tool: https://github.com/showell/CoffeeScriptLineMatcher
