 * Using the [TodoMVC](http://todomvc.com) jquery example
     * The footer blinks when the ScriptAgent is turned on (even when no edits have been made to the script). Even more noticeable with the Backbone example
     * The Live Development icon looks like it's turned off
+    * Why does reload take a long time when I save a .js file vs. when I save the HTML file?
+    * Adding a method to the object does not work (can't find the method)
+    * Adding a function to the closure does not work (can't find the function)
+        * further, the error displayed on the console didn't even reflect the full name of the function it couldn't find. It's as if the engine stopped updating.
+        * Just tried this again with a function that already existed... and it chopped off the last character of the function name both times!
+    * needs more looking:
+        * moved some functionality into a function
+        * commented out the call to that function
+        * alert call showed that it was still calling that function
+    * changing a variable's value set in a closure does not work (`var foo = 1000;` changed to `var foo = 10;`)
 * Using a [canvas demo](https://github.com/chrislongo/html5-canvas-demo)
     * The framerate does *not* appear to be affected by having the ScriptAgent loaded (I had a theory about the blinking in TodoMVC. Turned out to be false)
     * not surprisingly, making a change to `initPalette` live has no effect
