Be able to change the values of wires at run-time

In other enviroments, such as TestStand, you can change the values of variables at run-time, which is extremely useful when debugging.  It would be really nice if you could dothe same thing with the values on wires in LabVIEW.  Perhaps this could be implemented by allowing you to change the value of a wire using the Probe Watch Window or, if that isn't possible, there could be a separate window altogether such as a dedicated variables/watch window.

Also, I don't remember if custom probes today have an output or not. For some reason, I seem to remember that they do and you can use that to set the value, but I might simply be thinking of something that was discussed. Look at the documentation.
