Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Summary

It is not always clear exactly what was sent over the wire (RAW).

when you commented out lines
When you use variables in hoppscotch request bodies (especially with randomly generated ones)
Other postprocessing done by hoppscotch (?)

This makes it really hard to debug requests that were sent over the wire in some cases.

Proposal: in the respons body pane, also add a Request tab that shows the exact, unaltered body that was sent over the wire.

Why should this be worked on?

Right now it is hard to debug when requests fail.

FYI: #3904 could also reduce the gravity of this problem (i.e. then you could do a console.log(pw.request)
