+1!

Well, I am not 100% sure, but the var dump *can* work with arbitary
objects, it just does not descend into certain objects like
Repositories, Object Manager, Persistence Manager (which contain lots
and lots of sub objects).

So, I am not sure if the renaming makes sense; but besides that it'd be
great to have this functionality cleaned up.

Sure :)
