Commented Feature: Debugger Locals window does not show `this` [1617]

When debugging a project of type `HTML Application with TypeScript`, the Locals windows of debugger shows variables such as this, arguments, scope chain and global. This is much more usable (and also consistent with C# debugger) than the Node Tools` behaviour where no locals except the explicitly declared variables are shown.
Comments: Implementing this in a direct way did run into some challenges with backtraces becoming significantly more expensive and occasionally failing for unclear reasons. We'll revisit it post-1.0 to see if there's some way to get this working without compromising perf. For the time being, the workaround is to use the Watch window.
