The only mistake I've noticed is that if you hit enter on a line 
comment, the color tag goes with you.

Well, there is another mistake (cutting and pasting from a colored 
section keeps its color) but I'm pretty sure that's not my fault.  I 
can't figure out why it's happening because I do remove all the tags. 
Its like some special kind of paste that GTK is doing because both cut 
and paste are in the GtkTextBuffer.
