Close field anomaly

[Peter T. Evensen]

Actually, this isn't a bug.  If "select the text of me"didn't cause 
closeField to be sent again, the user could then get out of an invalid 
field by clicking twice: once to select it, and then, since the field 
didn't change, closeField wouldn't be called, and the user could move 
own, leaving an invalid value.
