I thought Dump did that too, but then I found the code that searches  
for the end of the tag or the first newline to cut it off at; my dump

Yes; I thought of overloading the window button, but again, that  
changes existing functionality/expectations.  It's pretty easy to  
scroll open the tag and check though.
