New Feature Request: Make Javascript Class names available in Debugger

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set a break point on the first line of hemi.core.init()
2. Launch a sample project.
3. When the break-point hits inspect the variables in firebug, Eclipse, or 
Aptana IDE.
4. You will not see a class name.

-What is the desired output? 

The desired output is to see the name of the class when inspecting the 'this' 
variable. 

-What do you see instead?

I see just 'Object' or '{}' as in attached screen shot.

I think it may be possible to write a separate debug module where class names, 
including the namespace are attached to all JavaScript classed in the 'hemi', 
'hext', 'o3djs' and 'o3d' namespaces. 

If it can be implemented in a separate module, then this module can be excluded 
from a production build. I will start work on this today.
