[support] turn debug on?

[sander-martijn]

Thanks - I know those.  In this case I'm not looking to see error 
messages on the screen - I've already eliminated errors.  And web 
developer and firebug are client side tools.  What I want is to trace 
what's happening on the app when there are no errors but things are 
still not happening as expected.  It's clear that drupal already has it 
built in - I'm just looking to find out how to turn it on.
