Pavel, there is no context in this bug about what is needed from the VM to support this and how it fits into the big picture of the debugging APIs.

Live Edit allows you to change functions on the fly without reloading the page. Typical use case is changing the activation frame's function while staying on a breakpoint. VM should recompile and re-run the function.
From API perspective, all we need is Dart_SetScriptSource(Dart_Handle script_url, Dart_Handle scrip_source) function.

Here is a documentation of the V8 Debugger API: https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/docs/protocol/tot/debugger#command-setScriptSource

CC'ing Devon as Dart Editor might be interested in this, too. I know IntelliJ is very interested in building Live Edit support.

Thanks for taking a look, Pavel.

Here is a video of how awesome live edit is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnnVl3ydIB0

It's seriously amazing. JetBrains (IntelliJ) have asked for this a few times. I'm sure Dart Editor could use this, too.
