(Abstract: "A drawer can contain any control that is appropriate to its intended use." 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.
