Suddenly today Visual Web Developer does not allow me to debug Silverlight applications.
This happens in 2008 and 2010 versions.

Interesting: debugging works in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox. Also on a new installation on a second computer it debugs in both IE and FF. Just noticed that that FF browser is still version 3.6.3.
I cleared everything in Firefox (3.6.4) but it still doesn't debug in that browser (on two computers):

Regarding the debugging: I think it would be possible to write a VS plugin or similar to attach to the plugin-container.exe process automatically, however there's a simpler solution. You can disable the new isolation feature in Firefox:
