Firefox's developer tools are terrible even compared to Internet Explorer 10/11 (which are actually surprisingly good). But at least Firefox as 3D doodads, because that's important...

But that all being said, if ANY developer addon lets me manually edit cookies then I will happily use it. Right now they all only let you delete, not alter, cookies. So it is hard[er] to test your site's security against malformed or malicious cookie issues.

Wow what, care to elaborate? I've attempted to use them once and couldn't do the most basic of tasks, went straight to getfirefox.com. Not sure what I tried to do, probably something network related or maybe css modifying.
