Circular unit references occur in most real-life code, so that according 
hints are quite useless. If ever, such a feature should at least allow 
to suppress warnings about well known and unbreakable loops. But even 
then the compiler cannot give useful hints, about *where* unwanted loops 
can be broken up.

The only really useful feature is the detection of unneeded unit 
references, and this feature already exists: Editor context menu -> 
Refactoring -> Show unused units.
