I have workarounds, I just don't want to have to use them. Selecting nothing or setting the hilitedline, either one, you still have to set up some handlers to do it. They don't work in an openCard handler, you have to reset after that.

I ALWAYS want that. Nevertheless, have you tried select nothing in after 
OpenCard?

This makes me crazy. I almost never want the first field selected when I go to 
a card, particularly on mobile. And god forbid the first field is a list field, 
where the first line is hilited whenever the stack resumes focus, even if the 
hilitedline was 0.

The workaround is tedious: on preOpenCard, set traversalOn to false, send a 
message to turn it back on after the card is displayed, include a handler that 
will catch the message and do the deed.

I want a property or setting that lets me turn off this default behavior. It's 
annoying and disruptive, and has been there since day one.
