For the record, this facility existed in the original ML from LCF 20 years ago, the variable was called "it" and it was extremely useful in top-level debugging. It was still there in ML V6.2 circa 1985, and thus also in early versions of Caml. I do not remember who took "it" off, but maybe "it" could be resurrected...
