Misunderstanding aside: the combination of quick entry field + menus is
bugged. 

Here using Chandler 1.0.3 RC1 on Mac OS X 10.5.6: whilst I can't reproduce
the loss (of item) described by Mark, I do notice that whilst typing in the
quick entry field: 

1. the Item menu flashes inappropriately whenever I key backspace

2. when text is selected: Edit menu options to Cut, Copy and Select All are
inappropriately disabled

3. when text is on pasteboard: Edit menu option to Paste is inappropriate
disabled

4. ignoring the Edit menu: accelerators (shortcuts) for Cut, Copy, Paste and
Select all are properly effective (not disabled).

Mark: the likelihood is that you will find your missing item(s) either (a)
in Trash of Chandler, or (b) in their original situation; sometimes Chandler
shows an item in Trash when it has _not_ been moved to Trash.

Side note: when using the quick entry field to find items, beware of
deleting/removing found items;
<https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12499> and
<https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12497> demonstrate
bugged behaviour in this situation.
