Howe many of you have found that error messages in Rev 2.2 do not appear
to be related to the actual cause of script errors?

Me, certainly. With a bit of effort I could give specific examples.

I guess (it **is** just a guess) that the error-message generator is losing the context in which the error occurs, so that it's reduced to simply giving some kind of random or generic error.

I noticed some who have replied have linked this behaviour to crashes in the IDE. Although I do see crashes in the IDE (almost always when I try to completely remove a mainstack and substacks from the IDE and start work on a new one - my suspicion is that the 'quit' handling in my original stack is somehow messing things up), this doesn't, for me, seem to have any connection with the anomalous error problem.

Slightly OT, when this error-reporting is improved (soon?) could RunRev stop giving the currently reported error a dark hilite - it's dark blue on my PC laptop - I find I have to click elsewhere in the error report window to switch off the hilite so as to render the error text readable, every time - and I can't believe I'm the only one. I haven't yet looked into Bugzilla to see if this has been formally suggested as an improvement.
