Description
tl;dr; `message` events trigger CD which makes the Profiler unusable together with Redux DevTools
----
- Project with NgRx, `StoreDevToolsModule` and Redux DevTools Chrome Extension
- NgRx and Redux DevTools communicate through `window.postMessage`
- `message` events trigger Change Detection and flood the profiler event list
- the profiler is not really usable without disabling the Redux DevTools
Example project: https://github.com/angular-schule/2021-03-angular-workshop-online/tree/main/book-rating

This problem is not specifically related to the Angular DevTools, but I never noticed this behavior before.
It could be solved on the NgRx or Redux DevTools side, but it would be cool to have a solution within Angular DevTools for this, too.
### Idea
- some sort of filtering for event type
- or ignoring specific events (or event sources?)

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the linked book-rating example, NgRx, StoreDevToolsModule, and the Redux DevTools Chrome extension. Start by tracing how window.postMessage events enter the profiler event list; done means profiling remains usable without disabling Redux DevTools, with a defined way to filter or ignore the relevant events.
