Extension summary
View the total namespace pollution at a glance! This can be useful when assessing your own sites and apps, and for educating your developers on the potential harm of a heavily polluted namespace.
I have found it particularly useful when reverse engineering other sites as it allows you to quickly discover and browse the objects they use.
User reviews

Useful but doesn't update itself as the application is being used. Only shows contamination that occurs after initial page load.
