Description
Reasons:
- Using a hierarchical list control would make navigation of large files(1) possible via the scrolling and folding facilities in a hierarchical list control
- as it is a pop up button it disappears when focus is lost (so I can't take a screenshot)

Research direction
Start by examining the definitions control in the DrRacket code, using drracket/private/unit.rkt as the example file named in the issue. The change is complete when definitions appear in a hierarchical list to the left of the code, with scrolling and folding for large files, and the control remains available after focus changes.
