Description
Stack View provides the ability to quickly define variables on the stack. In the case of structs on the stack, it would be useful if one could "remotely edit" the struct definition via Stack View. In other words, all the same shortcuts to create variables should be enabled in structs and create struct members instead.

Research direction
Start by locating the Stack View implementation and the existing shortcuts used to create stack variables, then trace how structs are displayed and edited. The change is done when those same variable-creation shortcuts work within a stack struct and create struct members.
