Yes, you are correct. You can simulate it an option button in a 
background group, and then set custom card properties and preOpenCard 
handlers that restore the value that had been set for each card. It's 
not too difficult, but it's not as easy as turning on "share text" in a 
field... (BTW, if you want info on how to do this, just ask).
