How can I use web-console and element inspector simultaneously in Firefox 20+ as I could in Firefox 19-?

Yes, new web-developer all-in-one tools are total mess. I didn't find the answer to this question either https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/955612 but downgrade to Firefox 19. But nor in Nightly, nor in Aurora, nor in Firefox Beta, nor in Firefox 20.0 I can use simultaneously web-console (where I test some style changing javascript code) and element inspector (where I instantly observe a reaction to my code). The only option I see is to switch every three seconds between them. How can I fix this except downgrading?

Firefox 21 has this problem too...the new code inspector setup is awful.

Downgrading to Firefox 19 until they revert the code inspector.

You can consider to use the DOM Inspector extension instead of the built-in Inspector.
