Stephen,

Actually it happens with all apps. Try this: Create a button with the handler:

on mouseEnter --or on mouseWithin
   beep
end mouseEnter

Go to any other running app. Move the mouse so that it is over the 
place where the Run Rev button is located. See if you hear a beep. I 
do with all running applications. Turns out we can create our own 
Ghost In the Machine.
