On some circumstances it's impossible to place debug breakpoint by clicking on source editor gutter. In case when bulb is shown with warning like "Local variable hides a field" there is impossible to place Line breakpoint, it's because every time I click on the gutter I'm getting "Rename the field" popup menu. This is so annoying. BTW there is plenty of space in gutter, but all that space is taken by yellow bulb listener. Another usability issue which is closely related with previous and could be improved or fixed at all. When one line have more than one message, suggestion or breakpoint an arrow pointing dow appears beside graphical icon. It would be wiser to list all of them in one line or show all of them when mouse arrow is placed on one of them. This could be good usability improvement. Also how about doing all of than without touching the mouse?
