Steps to Reproduce:

2. Set breakpoint.
3. When breakpoint is hit, select and right click on variable.
4. Menu options Debug: Evaluate and Debug: Run to Cursor are present, but Debug: Watch variable is now missing.

Yes, someone else is talking about this!
I was getting tired of waiting for this to return, as it slows down our workflow by having to use the Copy a source variable, Debug window... Add Expression, Paste... Refocus editor on source code, etc.
I got used to: Right-Click, Add Watch like Visual Studio.
What is the status? (because it's not even in the Insider's Build yet.)

A related issue I've noticed is... Oh wait, here it is: #2399

1. Debug code (Node.js).
2. Set breakpoint.
3. When breakpoint is hit, Use the DEBUG CONSOLE to assign a new value to the variable. (The value output after assignment seems to indicate it has been changed.)
4. RESULT: Hovering and Watch list do not reflect new value, and...
5. Re-Evaluating the variable now in the DEBUG CONSOLE shows the old value (I swear this worked before in @code)

It should work like Mikaël Mayer's answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4603021/is-it-possible-to-change-javascript-variable-values-while-debugging-in-google-ch/24694804#24694804
