        At least on the Mac, the active field will get wiped out. If you tab  
off the field, the changes get flushed to the data source, but if you  
are editing a field and then issue self.update() without tabbing off  
the field, the changes aren't preserved. I made changes to a field,  
opened up the command window, ran self.update(), and the field  
reverted to the original value.
