When a console.log fires or an Exception occurs, you see the output in the console, and a linked reference to the script-name: line-number where the call was made.  That's quite handy for digging through a large-code base.

When you type a function name into the console, it prints out the function body.  That's quite handy for small-functions, so you can remember what they are up to.

Now, what about larger functions, or small functions that are a part of a class?  It'd be handy to see those in context, with some syntax-highlighting.

It would be fantastic, to see a linked reference to the funciton definition when printing out a function body in the console.  Not sure how difficult that would be, but it would be handy.
