Description
I was just testing some features in internal google3 applications and I noticed there is now a hot restart button in the Dart DevTools UI! 🎉
I seems to work perfectly for the Flutter web apps that I tried, but on ACX applications like the gallery it didn't seem to work. There are messages logged to the console but the app never restarts so breakpoints that I set in the debugger are not hit.

Research direction
Start with the hot restart button in the Dart DevTools UI and compare its behavior in Flutter web apps with ACX applications such as the gallery. Review the console messages produced during restart. Done means ACX applications restart successfully and debugger breakpoints are hit.
