I read the blog from Rob Chartier and want to show you a feature that is available in Ajax.NET and Atlas. Both libraries are adding debug methods to the client-side JavaScript code.
Ajax.NET Professional: (see online example at http://ajaxpro.schwarz-interactive.de/)

o.FirstName = "Michael";
o.Age = 28;
window.debug.trace("my trace line 1");
window.debug.trace("my trace line 2");
window.debug.dump(o, "", true, "o");
window.debug.fail("my exception");
