Plug-in fails in Chrome - instruction text in plug-in is actively misleading

When I got to step 3 of StockWatcher, I found that it worked fine in IE8, but failed in Chrome. After browsing around a bit I found reference to the same error when using an external server and having to add the server to the white list in developer plug-in options. So I looked there, and the page said " To minimize security risks, by default it will only connect to the local machine."

Well, of course I was using the local machine. But I added it anyway. It didn't help, so I then did a lot more unrelated screwing around to no avail.

Finally, when I had reached the point of just trying things at random, I thought: maybe I should put the :9997 on the hostname. So I added 127.0.0.1:9997 on the DevMode options page, and it started to work.

You put textual instructions on the GWT DevMode options page that are actively misleading. Why? It is really amateurish.
