I couldn't find a bug report, but the issue that bothers me more than a 
timing delay is how existing breakpoints migrate to a completely 
different line after a script edit. Suppose I add a line of code at some 
point above a red dot breakpoint. Sometimes it works, moving the red dot 
down one line. Other times it moves the dot a random number of lines 
below where it should be, sometimes quite far away.

Since I don't have a repeatable recipe, I haven't reported it. This has 
been going on for a long time, it isn't a new problem. I'm in the habit 
now of removing existing breakpoints before any edit.
