           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All

When evaluating expression client should be able to refer to a particular remote object that cannot be accessed by name. Additional binding objectID -> name in local scope should be provided.
Protocol commands "evaluate*" should accept 'additional context' parameter in form
[
  {
    "name": <name>,
    "objectID": <objectID>
  }
]

The expression should be evaluated with additional names/values binded to a local scope.

E.g.
user expression "nextRandomColor()" evaluated to object with id 5.
Protocol let explore its properties. Protocol should also let evaluate string representation of the object:
  non-user expression "String(val)" with additional context [ { "name":"val", "objectID": 5 } ].
