This was deliberately disabled, but I'm not sure why. This can be very useful when there is a lot of data.

Don't know why its disabled, perhaps there were problems on GTK2. But if it works ok why not, finding "required from here" in 3000 lines of C++ errors from one misplaced character could be very useful :grin:.
`git blame` tells that it was me disabling it, in 2006. Unfortunately, I didn't comment why I did this and I don't remember.
Maybe there were problems with interactions or I just did it for no specific reason.
I'm fine to enable it again and see if it works as expected.
Merged #3823 into master.
