Description
Hello,
I am analyzing the dataflow paths for some of my queries and noticing some steps are being left out—specifically, the steps related to assignments. For example,
```
String value1 = "Hello";
String value2 = value1;
print(value2)
```
The dataflow path for this would be
value1 - from `String value1 = "Hello";`
value1 - from `String value2 = value1;`
value2 from `print(value2)`
Is there a way to also have value2 from `value1 - from `String value2 = value1;` inserted as step 3? So that it is
value1 - from `String value1 = "Hello";`
value1 - from `String value2 = value1;`
value2 - from `String value2 = value1;`
value2 from `print(value2)`
So that it is easier to follow the assignments? It's simple in this example, however, it can become confusing in more complex situations.
Thank you
