That's by design to keep you out of trouble in endless loops, etc. If that
doesn't bother you and you won't lose unsaved work you can do a

global gRevDevelopment; put true into gRevDevelopment

from the messagebox. And put false back in there when you're done playing around
in the system stacks.

Note: this will also reveal bugs in the IDE stacks, so ignorance may be bliss.
