Business value
Usually when debugging code, the developer wants to see variable contents by adding it in the debug console window. To help raise discoverability and make it easier to add variables, the debugger console window now support IntelliSense.
Feature details
The console supports IntelliSense for object types and members that can be evaluated in the context of the debugger: fields, locals, globals, and member symbols that are not methods on a data type.
We still don't allow evaluations of methods in the console.
The debugger watch window is not supported for now due to lack of integration points with Visual Studio Code.
