The idea is to match continue/break statements when under cursor with corresponding for/while/do-while/switch statements (in the same manner as visual assist highlights variables when they are under cursor) and in cases when the corresponding statement in out of screen show a tooltip with the statement like:

for (;;)
{
//many lines

-----------------
| for (;;) |
------------------
conti|nue;
}

You are right the tooltip is displayed with the full path to the container statement but there is no highlight of the corresponding statement when you click on the break/continue statement.
I am sorry looks like was not able to explain my initial idea in the right way and was not aware that part with the tooltip is already implemented.

Something like this is already available. If you turn on:

VA Options -> Display -> Show Quick Info tooltips for more symbols
Show tooltips for braces and structural keywords

and then hover the mouse pointer over the continue, break or one of the curly brackets.

I am checking this in VS2015 with VA 2108.
