7.0.1-RC1 selectively not obeying "open card in script?

[J. Landman Gay]

Yeah, well, it all breaks in LiveCode 6.7. Which is a huge bummer because I've relied on that handler for years and it's second nature now. Not only did the name of the editor field change, which is easily fixed, but the control key, among others, no longer triggers.
