Summary: [67cat] Spurious selection hint

Description dynamite 2009-04-12 10:55:33 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200904100201 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

If I select some text in a Groovy class/script then I get a selection
hint to wrap the text in a /* comment or an if statement.  If I click
away from the selection, the selection goes but the hint remains. 
The previously selected text now has a yellow squiggle under it. 
This selection remains until some different text is selected.

This behaviour is inconsistent with Java source files where the hint
is only present when there is a selection.
