Testing here, the returnInField message goes to the target field as 
expected.

Does your LC field have focus at that time?  If not try trapping 
returnKey in the card script (though that raises the question, how does 
one bring up the keyboard without an editable field having focus?).

Also, just curious: given the difficulty of emulating mobile text 
editing conventions in LC fields, why not use a mobile-native field there?
