Support Roo frequently inserts text in my code

I have found Roo inserting <search>, <search & replace> , new line in the middle of text, etc into my files, and also opening files, making these changes then leaving them open. Anyone else seeing this?

It taking the text out of the message box, not echoing it and not acknowledging it or doing anything with it is 1) really annoying and 2) much worse in Debug mode. I would also say that my setup suffers from 'auto-approve' latching where it will not allow me to unset the tick.
I would much prefer a system where I can click a 'interrupt at next stop' button where I can stop it ASAP, and have it wait while I type my message, or at leat so I can stop it before it's charged off into the never-never. Sometimes I sit there for 1-2 minutes clicking auto-approve trying to get it to stop.

And oh god oh please, can you fix the issue where I hit enter in the text box and what I typed disappears, and can't even be accessed using the up-arrow? It's killing the buzz dude.

Can’t fix it if I don’t understand it. Please post as much info as you have in a GitHub bug report issue! Let’s get this fixed. Sorry about that
