None of these work on 10.8, but defaults write com.apple.QuartzDebug QuartzDebugPrivateInterface -bool true
enables the window list and shadow cache windows. See 10.7:Quartz Debug 4.2 hidden prefs - Mac OS X Hints.
Quartz Debug is no longer installed with Xcode, but can be downloaded from developer.apple.com/downloads.
