I am currently fleshing out a DME watch table for various classes, each having several members. These classes are allocated dynamically, so their location in memory changes. Often times, I will want to use DME to quickly resolve the pointer chains so I know where to set memory breakpoints in Dolphin for particular members. The current address column behavior does not give the user any information unique to that entry; two entries using the same pointer but with different offsets show the same address information. In order to deduce where in memory these members are, I have to double-click the entry to see the entire pointer chain in the pop-up window.
