Does anyone know of a way to coax the "answer" command into using a 
button other than the last one specified as the default?  This behavior 
stands in the way of compliance with Apple's HI Guidelines:

In Chapter 11 ("Layout Examples"), there is a statement that the 
"action button" for an alert (the button which completes the action 
initiated by the user, the one which triggered the display of the 
alert), should always be the rightmost button in the alert, even though 
it is *not* always the default button (the one triggered by 
enter/return) -- in some cases, such as actions which may result in 
data loss, the guidelines specifically state that the default action 
should be something else, normally "Cancel".

I can't accomplish this with Rev's "answer" command, can I?
