Adobe CEP panels: in-circuit .zxp Debugging without debug flag
It's not common knowledge, but you can package a CEP extension into a .zxp file and debug it 'in-circuit'.
In other words: install the .zxp file using the standard extension installers, and then connect to the running extension using the Chrome debugger, without needing to set the CEP debug flag.
