Quick comment: When working on this, PPI::Token::Symbol and its symbol mangling methods will be the key to success.

Update: There is now a Padre::PPI::get_all_variable_declarations. It returns a simple structure of the variable declarations, their type and location. It should be usable for creating a tree view. The GUI code hasn't been written since the GUI is in flux wrt tabbing and similar.

I doubt whether having a full GUI view of all the places where any variable is used would be useful.
