#9175: Admin Option Page lacks Infos about serialized Option Values

WordPress iteself and many other Plugins store option-values as a so
called "serialized string".
WordPress Admin has got a Page that displays all Options:
/wordpress/wp-admin/options.php
With this Page, many of those can be viewed and edited. But: The options
that are stored as serialized values can not be edited nor viewed.
That means, if an Administrator want to get a view on the values, she/he
needs to take a database viewer at least. And then the serzialized values
are a very long string, rendering this very unusefull.
Therefore, this enhancement adds functionality to the Options Page sothat
serialized values can be viewed. This is very usefull for example to
analyse your setup.
The current motivation and why I'd like to see this in fast, is because of
the problems that resulted with the current no-control situation to see
which plugins are really activated through options . For example as
describben in #9164.
