Description
I was trying to figure out where a hit test was going (I'm writing a test, and tapping is not hitting the node I am identifying with the finder).
The "select widget" feature, amusingly, finds the node I am aiming for when I tap.
It would be useful to have a feature where you could tap the screen and instead of selecting a node, it gave you a list of the nodes that were hit, with the ability to jump to each of those nodes in the inspector.
This is probably a low-priority feature request.

Research direction
Start by examining the existing “select widget” feature referenced in the issue and reproduce the reported mismatch between tapping and the finder. Define the hit-node list and inspector jump behavior as the completion criteria; the issue names no files or tests, so locating those entry points is part of the work.
