Ok, this one is really obscure:

1. Create user variable foo on computer 1

2. Open and save on computer 2

3. Rename project on computer 1. Add watch on variable foo.

4. Open on computer 2. Variable foo no longer exists.

5. Recreate foo on computer 2. Attempt to place a watch on it.

FB thinks there is already a watch on it, but it doesn't show in the list. You have to do "delete variable watch" in the variables list.

Told you it was obscure...
