ComponentHighlighter add-on

Hi everybody,

I’ve just released a new add-on:
ComponentHighlighter
. This add-on provides a small and simple component extension which aims to assist you during the development of a Vaadin application.

The component extension highlights the extended component in the browser with an eye-catching label containing the fully qualified class name of the extended component or a user-defined text. By that, you can see which part of your UI is implemented by which Java class directly in the browser. The extension is only active when the Vaadin application is run in debug mode. In production mode, the add-on will have no effect.

Looking forward to read your comments and ideas for improvement!
