Something that exists in Firefox and that I love is the fact that request and response payloads are expanded by default. Firefox uses a nice powerful approach that is both pragmatic and efficient.

In Chrome however, the best I can do is click "expand recursively" to see the whole payload in one sweep. I can also do OPTION+CLICK on mac or ALT+CLICK on windows but you still need to click specifically the little arrow.

Repeating yourself over and over every day is quite boring and makes chrome user journey quite bad when in need of frequent network debugging. 

I would love to see an option that allows people to choose the default behavior.
Also clicking the node with OPTION+CLICK should be enough IMO. It would make payload inspection much much more pleasant.

Thanks guys.
