Did you say you are using a custom editor? Do you have FlashBuilder or another Flex IDE? Is it confused about brace matching? If not, it could be the editor you are using.

I removed the braces from the case statement and I continue to have the cursor before either the last or the next t last closing brace pointing to the first open one.

Instead, the code is delimited by the case statement itself and the break. Either way, your closing brace at line 32 overlaps your break statement at line 31. I suggest removing those two braces or at least moving the closing brace above the break.
