weird msg-box phenom?

While I'm debugging a script (stopped at a breakpoint), when I try to  
use the message box to check something, it lets me type up to &  
including one blank space; then the insertion point disappears and  
the box takes no characters. When I click inside it again it accepts  
characters up through one more blank space; and so on. Do others get  
this?

Now that I mention it: I don't remember it being true before, but it  
is now, that the Variable Watcher window disappears whenever there's  
no script running. Am I just forgetting? It's a pain -- the debug/ 
edit cycle has to include starting up that window again . . .

(OS 10.4.2; Dreamcard 2.6.1 but it happened on 2.6 before I upgraded)
