Hi Jesse,

thanks for the bug report.

In fact, I was just using ProGuard to identify unused classes, because 
it reads from a large number of library jars.

But I will change the proguard configuration to not remove methods of 
classes that are used.

What kind of scripts are you writing? Do you need any more functionality 
in WebScarab itself to support them?

For what it is worth, you can also call the ManualEditFrame 
editRequest(Request) and editResponse(Request, Response) methods from 
your script, if you want to. They should be thread safe, and block and 
unblock appropriately.
