Feature request: "highlight variables" for record members

[Worker]

Currently if a variable/parameter is defined, then putting the cursor in it causes all occurrences of that variable to be highlighted.

For variables/parameters of a record type it would be nice if, when putting the cursor in a member, all occurrences of that record+member could be highlighted.

Example of current functionality:

DECLARE
TYPE MyRecordType IS RECORD ( m1 NUMBER, m2 NUMBER );
my_record MyRecordType;
BEGIN
my_record.m1 := 1;
my_record.m2 := 9;
my_record.m1 := 2;
END;

Example of requested functionality:

DECLARE
TYPE MyRecordType IS RECORD ( m1 NUMBER, m2 NUMBER );
my_record MyRecordType;
BEGIN
my_record.m1 := 1;
my_record.m2 := 9;
my_record.m1 := 2;
END;

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests.

I can say "me too" for this request. We use records extensively, and the highlight of the record variable instead of the (requested) individual members is at its best quite useless. Highlight of member variables is of high priority for me.
