JAB: You know, I never even noticed any of the things on that list of bugs until just now. Thank you so very much.

Are you kidding dude? Have you ever used it? You can literally point at anything on the page and find out everything there is to know about that element (css properties including inheritance and final computed property values, box model layout, DOM information, its point in the html hierarchy), you can add css properties on the fly to anything, along with html attributes. You can edit the HTML in place, you can hover over something in the html in firebug and see exactly what its padding and margin is in the browser window. I don't see how you can even compare this to the "web developer toolbar". I use both because, like has been stated, they do different things. Maybe you should give it another look?I have Firebug installed though never use it. I haven't seen any reason it'd be useful in addition to the Web Developer toolbar. I use Firefox's error console first and foremost and when I encounter something that leaves me scratching my head I load it up in Opera because it's error console is more detailed about specific errors.
