I just noticed that even if i bring up a stock dialog (like the put file
dialog to save a file) that command-x still doesn't work. for these dialogs
it DOES flash (hilite) that menu, but no cutting happens. So I don't think
it matters how i am running the modal dialogs, because a stock dialog (cocoa
is running) also has this problem.
