I personally use multiple desktops during periods of development and
would use one to run the browser and the other for debugging, but I can
live with the restriction of using the same desktop for both.

I have not yet have need for the proxy, but I could see the appearance
of the browser and client as being on different systems with the proxy
in use.

Mostly, yes, but it would be nice to be able to specify the port on the
fly.  I suppose a system administrator could hand out specific ports to
individual users so that they always start the client on that port and
code their localconfig with that port.
