          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

Currently console and watch evaluation results are wrapped with
InspectorController::wrapObject. wrapObject caches the results in the inspector
controller. We clean it up upon clearConsole. Originally, wrapObject was only
applied to console evaluation results, so that implementation was correct.
However, now watch expressions now use same method, while their lifetime does
not depend on console. As a result we leak memory on every watch expressions
update.
