I have often wanted to get such a list as well without having to write code myself. If a function which automatically iterated over all possible objects and listed out the ones that being debugged were available in the core it would be useful. Even if its slow this would be used at debug time and not a production time so it would not be too bad. Even a heuristic that checked likely locations, e.g. just the global environment, but not all locations might be useful.
