Description Jeremy Kahn 2011-08-16 09:59:12 PDT 
Overview:  Firebug has an "Add Watch" function that is extremely helpful.  In Firebug, when you are inspecting JavaScript, you can highlight a variable, contextual click, and select "Add Watch."  All this does is save developers the trouble of copy/pasting the text of the variable and adding it to the Watch column.  It's a time saver.

I would like to request that similar functionality be implemented into WebKit.

(Side note:  This is my first feature request.  If I am submitting it incorrectly, please let me know.)
