Research direction
Start in the Stack window's existing Create structure action and compare its behavior for a selected range with a stack variable selection. Review the Types workflow described in the issue as a reference for the intended result. Done means the action can create and assign a structure to the stack variable, and range selection behaves as expected.

Description
What is the feature you'd like to have?
There's a stack var that's actually a structure. At the moment, the option to create structure on the stack is visible only when the selected range is ?? in the Stack window. Binja disallows to remove the var completely which would allow me to create proper structure. I've to manually open Types, create structure and assign it. There is already Create structure option in the window, can it be expanded to work on the vars too ?
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Not really.
There is an option to select range (including the stack var) and create structure but this does not work at all as expected.
