Here's my observation on what happens when a user leaves a control: 1) new control gets focus 2) prior control loses focus 3) flushValue() called from onLostFocus() 4) validateField() called 5) if validation failed, we set focus to the prior control If we can catch a "user wants to move focus away" and prevent it before the above cycle occurs, that would be better. It's at least worth looking at.
