Suggestion - allow using custom DevTools

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I want to modify the DevTools (to use larger fonts, for example), but in the 
new versions of CEF, the DevTools source files are packed in unknown .pak 
format.

How do I do that? Maybe provide a mechanism to use my custom DevTools? Or even 
better, you can point me to somewhere I can find a tool to generate the 
chrome.pak file from the source files extracted from devtools_frontend.zip 
which can be downloaded from the chromium project site. Thanks.

You can use CefRegisterSchemeHandlerFactory() to override the internal handler 
for the chrome-devtools scheme and provide your own implementation that reads 
devtools resources from, for example, a folder on disk.

See the docs at: http://www.chromium.org/devtools

6. Run your back-end copy of Chrome with command line flag 
--debug-devtools-frontend=<full path to your unzipped devtools-frontend>.

I'm afraid cef doesn't have a mechanism similar to Chrome's command line 
parameter --debug-devtools-frontent?
