Also, it would be nice if we can expand nested arrays. Currently 
the watch of an array/aa will just expand a generic string 
[length, ptr] but can't be expanded any further. This requires us 
to have to add another watch that lets us go further down the 
tree.

We should be able to simply expand any depth of a multi nested 
array as we want(until we run out of arrays).
