I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox Developer Edition, and I LOVE it. But I'm having one annoying issue:

In the Javascript console, a bunch of extra information is constantly getting logged, e.g.:

Mutation childList : MutationRecord { type "childList", target: div.class, addedNodes: NodeList [], removedNodes: NodeList(1), previousSibling: null, .......

This stuff clutters the console so much that I have to scroll and hunt around to find my own console logs, errors, warnings, etc. Is there a way to stop logging this extra information?

You can select what categories you want to see via the Filter bar. I usually hide CSS errors unless I am especially interested in these. Otherwise I don't think that there is much to customize (no specific devtools prefs).

Is this really the only way? There's nothing in about:config or anything? I can filter out "Logs" which does stop the "Mutation" spam, but it also hides my own console.log()'s, which kind of defeats the purpose.
