I don't see how debugging tools help at all.

It's reasonably common (in that we've gotten a number of bug reports 
from sites doing this and discovering issues that way) for sites to 
install an onerror handler that phones home the error and then analyze 
the resulting reports to catch bugs in their code.  Or browser code, as 
the case may be.

 From the point of view of those sites, any exception that they do not 
explicitly catch and also doesn't end up calling window.onerror is a 
problem because it might be hiding bugs.

This use case is obviously not covered by debugging tools...
