Why do you have to use a USB cable to access remote debugging / Firebug-like features in Firefox for Android? And why is it called remote debugging, if you have to have a USB cable attached - shouldn't remote debugging be just like desktop versions of Chrome and Firefox and IE where you can actually be remote to debug your website?

I have a unique setup where I run a LAMP server at home and I use a SSH connection to access my web server on the go. I have coded all things many people need apps for such as a web launch page that has morphed into a hub of sorts, where I can track my calories, runs, view past weather info and all this cool stuff in the format which I desire -

The problem is when I want to modify the code on my "Web UI" I am able to do so fine and upload the files via SCP/SSH and view the results in Firefox - but I can't debug to find out why a javascript change or PHP change isn't working. I can do this fine on my PC at home, even on websites which I do not own

Is there any work to get Firebug working more like the desktop version? Seems silly it's so "open" on Desktop platforms, but really dumbed down to where you have to have a USB cable to do anything on a tablet/phone. If the industry is really moving towards everyone having tablets and phones, I see this as a major crutch for anyone to debug their websites remotely.

Sounds great but what if I am on 3G/4G cell network and do not trust wifi due to the obvious security risks / how easy it is to use Wireshark to intercept traffic? I mean, I'm on SSH, so all I need is to be able to debug any address at http://127.0.0.1:8080 (the tunneled port)
