I remember removing it because (I think) there was no simple way to
make it work exactly as before with the new symbol table, and also
becaue there is no "all" option for who in Matlab.

Do you need this option for debugging, or something else?

If it is just debugging, would it be OK to have the following

  -- vector_of_scope_ids = __dump_symbol_table__ ("scopes")

    Return a vector of all scope ids currently in use in the symbol
    table.

  __dump_symbol_table__ (scope)

    Print a detailed listing of all information in the symbol table
    for the scope id SCOPE.

  __dump_symbol_table__ ()

    Print a detailed listing of all information in the symbol table
    for all scopes.
