While that can work with self-contained libs, quite often Rust WASM code uses wasm-bindgen/web-sys to talk to JS/DOM which makes in-browser debugging the only reasonable way.

Flash and Java allowed you to run the code in the browser, but still debug using the source code and not the VM bytecode.
A good wasm debugger would let you see the source code too, just like how regular native debuggers show you the source code instead of x86 assembly.
