I'm not familiar with JVMTI and the doco is not very good,
at least for "newbies" trying to understands the semantics of the
call. I need to expermient. ;-)

I'd like to see something like
reference <- referer1.field
<- referer2.field <- referer3.field
And although using object.toString() is useful,
it can be obscure when it doesn't include [EMAIL PROTECTED]
like some of the jsr77 classes
and it is totally uninformative for arrays.
Similarly, some collections like linked lists or HashMaps don't show up
well with the algorithm you are using.
