Okay, I agree that the HIG document is wishy-washy about when to use
drawers. But I think the intended use of drawers is for displaying
auxiliary information. Any pushbuttons in a drawer should be related
to control of that auxiliary information. The action of the main
window should not be affected by whether or not a drawer is open.
Thus it seems to me that you are misusing drawers if you are
expecting that a pushbutton in a drawer will be the default button.
I'm just guessing, but it seems that you probably should be using a
sheet (or a dialog) instead of a drawer if you want the user's focus
to be concentrated on that pushbutton.
