Follow-up Comment #2, bug #48299 (project octave):

The way I've seen in QtCreator and EDB is saving the whole state (all
registers in EDB, only expanded variables in QtCreator) before resuming
execution and comparing it with new one on breakpoint.

In Octave this may be hard given that it updates the Workspace view even in
non-debug mode. But I think such highlighting is only useful in debug mode and
only between breakpoints/steps, not on every assignment, so I think the same
approach as in QtCreator and EDB would be OK.

Roll-back feature would be extremely heavy, not only in terms of performance,
but also in terms of memory usage. I think it should only be like "start
recording", "stop recording" actions, not always active.
