Some of our tools use the arrow keys for various functions. There are modified and non-modified arrow key functions. So the user can easily find which key does which function, they commands are presented in a menu with their key equivs. This is a problem when we bring up a Save dialog. The menu never gets a validateMenuItem call, so the arrow keys go to that menu instead of to the edit text field or browser in the Save dlog. This *might* be because this menu does not use autoenablesItems. Regardless, it's not good for the user. Any ideas? I guess we could override the doc method that presents the Save dlog and manually disable the menu beforehand. Seems hacky.
