Here's a nice one. Put a TEdit on a form. Edit its name, and delete it. The form
file is altered to be

 object TEWBDesignEdit
   Left = 58

instead of

 object editTitle: TEWBDesignEdit
   Left = 58

This causes the compiler to fall over in interesting ways. You do get some sort of
warning usually, but I was able to output the javascript which then has interesting
syntax errors like "$t. = null".
   
Not a show-stopper when one is aware of it, but the IDE should stop the component
name being deleted.

I had the same problem with a TLabel.
The WBF file must been changed manually (the line n° is show in the messages area)

I'll make sure this is fixed.
