Description
A common feature in modern IDEs, which is very useful for quick evaluations of expression, without the need to add (and most likely edit and delete) a watch is quick watch (or evaluate). It shows the values of expressions using the current scope as a context for variables, functions etc.
Proposal
Add a quick watch popup, which could start empty or from the current code selection, behaving similar to a picker, with expandable values for the result of the expression. Expandable values should follow the implementation of locals from #5954.
