Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the MobX Devtools Chrome extension with an Observable Map, using the screenshots and the toJS() workaround as references. Trace how the store value is displayed and verify that the Observable Map's contents, rather than an empty object, are shown.

Description

Hi,

Thanks for great Chrome Extension.

I used to use this extension to trace mobx store data. Everything seems ok. But I can't trace value of Observable Map

For temp solution, I have to set toJS() function to global window like this :
ss2

So can you enhance this great extension to display value of observable Map ?
