Popup editor to edit dimensions with long formulas and/or named parameters

Add a "pop-up" editor to edit dimensions:

Because:

Input fields for dimensions are many places very short. If you use named parameters, it is very difficult to get an overview of the content. This can sometimes be equations containing several long-named paramters. I often have to copy text to notepad, edit, and then copy it back. A couple of places with the problem:

This would be handy.  Currently, I often will deal with this by using that smaller box to name the parameter (so it is recognizable), then actually writing the equation for it in the Parameters dialog box.

... and if you add some "Intellisence" in that editor, that would suggest parameter names and functions (Ceil, Round, Sign, Max, Min, ...), then it would be magnificant.
