The problem

In the developer tools the MQTT tab is missing

Expected behavior

When using the MQTT integration, when opening the developer tools in the UI, there should be also the MQTT tab.

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to developer tools
2. Check the (missing) MQTT tab.

Environment

• Home Assistant release with the issue: 0.112.0
• Last working Home Assistant release (if known): 0.111.4
• Browser and browser version: Edge (chromium based) Version 83.0.478.58 (Official build) (64-bit) and Android Companion App
• Operating system: Windows 10 (build 19041.329). Android 10

Check the release notes, it specifically uses MQTT as the example: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/07/01/release-112/#integration-specific-panels-are-now-on-the-integrations-page

Found it, thanks! With all the changes in this packed update I have overread this.

Wow, what a weird way of making it less intuitive. This was honestly a sub optimal move.

The MQTT listener is such an integral part of (probably) a majority of all installations. Hiding it under "Configure" in the MQTT integrations pane is for sure not a good GUI enhancement.

I mean, it could have been hidden there also, but kept as a direct tab/link in the Developer Tools as it was before.

Also, even the mention in the release notes was for sure not very helpful. The MQTT listener and publisher is not a configuration.

A big thumbs down from me, I must say.

This ticket would be a perfect feature request to add the MQTT tab back to the developer tools. @denniswham, please reopen this ticket.
