In the legacy DevTools UI, when using "Select an element in the page to inspect it" tool (Ctrl + Shift + C) to select an element in the page, the DevTools window would be automatically brought to foreground window. This is very convenient.
However, in the new DevTools UI, its behavior seems to be weird. After selecting the element, the DevTools window must be manually shown in the foreground. It's too troublesome.
