CommandKeyDown in a library script?

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Craig,
I have to respectfully disagree.  I think the best solution is to fix the
bug.

I know you and others use it as you've described for testing various
versions of the same handler but you can still do that by commenting out
all except the one you want to run instead of just the ones above the one
you want to run, so there's no loss of functionality for you.

On the other hand, this bug has caused a lot of people (me included) a lot
of grief and fixing it would prevent that for others.  I doubt it will be a
very high priority but I really think it should be fixed at some point.

It also brings to mind that perhaps there should be a list of "gotchas" for
new users.  This would be one of them.  Another one might be red dot
breakpoints not working in preOpenxxx handlers.  I'm sure there are others.
