New issue 54 by zachsmit... at ...626...: Gambas debugger shows "unexpected"  
warnings on keywords when paused
http://code.google.com/p/gambas/issues/detail?id=54

If you step through a program and then select a keyword like sub or public,  
for example, you get "unexpected sub", or "unexpected public" warning  
balloons.  This is inconvenient if one intended to select a keyword and  
then press F2 to get the definition.  Instead one needs to wait 5 seconds  
for the warning to disappear before F2 can be pressed.

In a similar manner, selecting just part of a variable name will give the  
same warning.

For the line,

   For i = 1 To 10

if you select "i =" accidentally instead of just "i" in order to get the  
value of the variable, you get a warning "unexpected end of expression" and  
have to wait 5 seconds for the warning to go away (unless you click on the  
balloon). Perhaps it would be better if no warnings appear while selecting  
text while paused.

This is not quite the same as issue 28, but similar.
