There isn't any good way to do that. You can uncheck "Script debug mode" 
in the Development menu, but then all the built-in debugging functions 
won't work. You'd have to write your own.

One work-around might be to put whatever you are typing into the 
clipboard and just paste in the whole phrase. I don't think that gets 
blocked.

Also, the behavior doesn't seem to occur unless you have a modal stack 
frontmost. If you can change your frontmost stack to modeless during 
debugging, you should be able to type as usual.
