Describe the Feature Request

From @ubaumann on discord:

Is adding "__typename" to the GraphiQL Explorer possible? It works great. What I mean: Can it be added to the browsable Explorer on the left? It was really handy to click my request together, and it would be nice to have it already there.

I think we're pretty much using https://github.com/graphql/graphiql/tree/main/packages/graphiql-plugin-explorer as is for this feature it would probably require us to create a forked version or get them to change it in the upstream. I'm somewhat skeptical of this. As __typename can be used everywhere within GraphQL it might be very verbose to have the same thing show up in all places.

I would definitely try to avoid maintaining an own fork. Especially for just a small nice to have. I was thinking if it is possible to enable it, it could be nice for people not familiar with graphQL.
