Except Paul is right, on OS X the clear command in a custom built menu does not invoke a closeField message which it does if using the IDE's clear command. This does seem to be a bug.
I never use "clear" so I had to look it up. Clear is a synonym of "delete" and only works on objects ("delete this cd", "delete img 1".) So that explains why it doesn't work in fields.
I tried scripting a text deletion, but then we're back where we started -- scripted text changes don't trigger a closefield.
So in the case of "clear", your first solution is probably workable. I guess that explains why I always remove "Clear" from my menus. It's become so habitual, I'd forgotten why.
