Ghidra: Highlighting similar symbols (names, registers, etc.)

Current behavior:

Desired behavior:

Use the middle mouse button. The feature is there, it's just not terribly discoverable.

Also read up in the help section about "Higlight Forward/Backward (Inst) Slice"...

Ghidra then higlights all occurences of the variables plus additional tainted variables and instructions. Pretty neat...
