            Bug ID: 176766
           Summary: Web Inspector: Implement `queryObjects` Command Line
                    API
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal

          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Chrome DevTools just introduced a `queryObjects` Command Line API:
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/08/devtools-release-notes#query-objects

> Call queryObjects(Constructor) from the Console to return an array of objects
> that were created with the specified constructor. For example:
> 
>   * queryObjects(Promise). Returns all Promises.
>   * queryObjects(HTMLElement). Returns all HTML elements.
>   * queryObjects(foo), where foo is a function name. Returns all objects that were instantiated via new foo().

Example in action:

This would be very useful for developers. I often find myself in the situation where I want to find all the objects of a particular class, knowing that there will be (or should be) just a few instances.
