Request: highlighting variable references: type attributes

[ed10k]

If a type is voluminous then is it hard to look up at references to certain attributes of the type-variable.

Example: giving a procedure:

1  create or replace procedure test_proc
 2  is
 3    type typ1 is record( attr1 number
 4                        ,attr2 number
 5                       );
 6    l_typ1_var typ1;
 7  begin
 8    l_typ1_var.attr1 := 1;
 9    l_typ1_var.attr2 := 2;
10
11    l_typ1_var.attr1 := 10;
12    l_typ1_var.attr2 := 20;
13
14  end;

Existing feature: If you click on "l_typ1_var" then all 5 occurences of "l_typ1_var" are highlighted.

It is possible to highlight only the selected attribute of a type-variable references?
I.e. if you click on "attr1" on line 8 then "l_typ1_var.attr1" on line 8 and 11 should be highlighted (and only these!).
If you click on "attr2" on line 9 then "l_typ1_var.attr1" on line 9 and 12 should be highlighted (and only these!).

This is currently not possible. I have added it to the list of enhancement requests.
