Description

Re-opening this issue from v6: https://github.com/vuejs/devtools-v6/issues/1094

Currently there's no way that I can see to fully inspect component data objects in the vue dev tools including their functions, "store as global variable" or "use in console" would be useful to this.

I'm referring to state which has functions rather than component methods, although that might be useful too to invoke arbitrarily

Research direction

Start from the existing “copy value” dropdown in the Vue Devtools interface and trace how component state is exposed to the console. Add a “store as global variable” or equivalent “use in console” action that supports state objects containing functions, then verify that the selected value can be inspected from the browser console.
