On the other hand, when you analysed a huge session (or a 25 pt match) to
point only to blunders, it is possible you will have to open game after game
after game until you find one (_if_ one).
It would suit me if gnubg indeed jumped to the next error.

So: maybe add a popup window when leaving the current game?
"Next error is not in this game. Continue?"
