Jacque said yesterday:

" On a Mac, 
however, buttons cannot receive focus and the first editable field will 
receive focus instead. On Macs, you have to use a hack -- either make 
sure none of your fields are focusable, or else hide an editable field 
offscreen somewhere whose layer is set to 1. Then that hidden field gets 
the focus and your card looks untouched."

However, if you do that, the user will eventually tab into the unseen field and wonder where the focus is.

This must be problem with the current version of RR. In MC, "openField" does not generate a "dirty" stack message.
