In the Network tool, there’s a “Response” tab that shows the JSON payload returned. It’d be awesome to have the same thing for “Request” to easily see explore the JSON payload sent. I often want to check to see what parameters we’re sending to our analytics tool ([Segment.io](http://Segment.io)). Only thing in the last 8 months that has made me fire up Chrome. 😉

I think we might already have what you are looking for. The Params tab parses JSON request payloads:
