If you can see the edges in question, there's always MeasureIt. Sometimes I find it quicker than Firebug.

Looks like there's not such a plugin available at the moment.

Firebug.

And you will have to do some simple arithmetics, if you mix borders/margins/paddings.

Firebug can tell you this information: enable it, choose the HTML tab, choose the element you're interested in, then select the layout tab on the right. It shows a diagram quite similar to your artwork above :-)
