It would be nice if there was a radio button near the refresh button on the context tab to auto-refresh at some reasonable interval (5 sec?). When debugging it gets cumbersome to keep pressing refresh. Also if it could retain the object browser tree location, otherwise you would have to keep navigating the objects every refresh.
