I'm sure I checked that and it was different in the IDE but when I
check it again you are right. Submitted a suggestion for a Dictionary
amendment.
Bug 13440
...
The Dictionary entry for closeField AND delete should also include
these two other exceptions of when closeField will not be triggered:
i.e.
The closeField message is not sent when a field's content is changed by:
* using the put command
* using the delete command, or it's synonym; clear
* using the IDE's Clear Text menu item
