Yes. You can edit CSS in Resources panel (http://youtu.be/N8SS-rUEZPg?hd=1&t=7m18s) and JS in both Resources and Scripts panels. It doesn't have any code completion yet. Also, you have to double click to enter edit mode (I don't know why https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71645).
I believe it's possible to make Less and SASS work. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firesass-for-... does work somehow. Can't same the same about CoffeeScript.
Web Inspector editor is not powerful yet, but I'm working in this direction: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70182, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71625, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70181, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69986 ...

What bothers you the most?

> So the biggest pain is having to hit refresh (not that big a deal).

You could try http://livereload.com/

You have to reload the page then. Also, copy the changes from this file to your stylesheet.
LiveReload should works on every browser that supports WebSockets. It should work on modern WebKit-based mobile browsers.

Live.js uses polling. It sends XHR HEAD request every second.

LiveReload monitors file changes using FSEvents (on Mac OS X) and inotify (on Linux). When the file modified, it pushes its path to the browser and reloads immediately.

> - keyboard shortcuts for debugging (go to line, create breakpoint)

F1 shows shortcuts. ⌘G: Go to Line

How do you create a breakpoint with shortcut?

I've made one for 10K too http://10k.aneventapart.com/Entry/235. Mine is SVG based. The code is on GitHub http://github.com/NV/color-blender.
If I knew about it wouldn't build mine.
I built a Chrome extension that meets gist.github.com and ideone.com http://github.com/NV/run-this-gist. Alas, API doesn't work well in most cases http://ideone.com/tXexT.
Try http://run-this.appspot.com/ if you don't want to learn SOAP.
Would be nice to have more difficulty level http://elv1s.ru/i/bombada-score.png

http://www.masterbranch.com/developer/nv/139036 "NV has worked in 2 Open Source projects."

It's not true. http://github.com/NV — 27 repositories.

Inspired by Yandex, I've made Faviconize Google user script, which adds favicons to the Google's search result page.

Unrelated question. How did you make syntax highlighting for bash prompt? I mean, yellow strings ('user exists' on 5:40) and orange wrong commands (enclosed string "'use").

I've found no clue in http://github.com/benhoskings/dot-files
