1451901 - Is there a way to collapse all about:memory subtrees at once, or open about:memory fully collapsed?

I've been struggling with this for awhile, I find the full about:memory tree (1441 lines in my current example) truly overwhelming. I know about this:

"Sub-trees can be collapsed or expanded by clicking on them. If you find any particular tree overwhelming, it can be helpful to collapse all the sub-trees immediately below the root, and then gradually expand the sub-trees of interest." 

In my current example, "Explicit Allocations" collapsed nicely, but the first "Other Measurements" below it took 16 clicks before I could see the next heading. To collapse the whole display down to headings where I could spot the sections using a GB by themselves would take hundreds of clicks. Have I missed some quick trick to "collapse all" or open collapsed? Do people who use this daily use some other app to provide such capability? 

I have no idea if this is a feature request, or a documentation request, or just an admission of ignorance, but I've searched here and the web and the answer clearly is not obvious. Clues would be appreciated!

So if the solution is "New Documentation", does that mean there _is_ a way to "collapse all"? Could you please share it here? Or point me to it?
