Inspect element in Dartium gives an error

Create a very basic HTML application with a single image in it
Run it via Dartium
In Dartium right click "Inspect element"

The Dart Editor then shows a message "The debugger connection has been closed by DevTools. Do you want to re-connect...."

Isn't this the expected behavior at the moment since only one debugger connection is allowed at one time?

Yes, this is our work-around flow for devtools not supporting multiple debugger connections. Opening devtools disconnects us. Closing devtools, and clicking on the re-connect button, will re-connect us.

OK - in which case we need to say why it's happening.

Right now, the user response is 'oh, there's a bug in editor that's causing it to fail'.

Perhaps change message to:

The debugger connection has been closed by DevTools.

DevTools only supports one connected debugger (e.g. Editor or Chrome DevTools) at a time.

Do you want to reconnect..."

Makes sense - I'll update the message. This issue does effect other tools (IntelliJ, ...), and ideally devtools will add support for multiple debuggers.

Added Fixed label.
