FeatureRequest: possibility to show/evaluate selection under cursor?

[rduivenvoorde]

Hi,

Really not sure if this is difficult to implement or not... but it would be great to be able to have some possibility to 'evaluate' a selected variable or expression while stopped at a breakpoint. Just like in 'other' debuggers.
In image below, I'm curious what 'self.toolbarSearch.text()' would be.
As said: not sure if this is difficult or not. I could imagine different things:

• some 'console'-like function in which you can type an expression when in breakpoint
• some menu/context-item 'evaluate expression' which then outputs to ??
  What is easiest.
