The "Next" key seems to move to the next item that could interact with
the keyboard.

The "Done" key is less clear to me.  It sends in a
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER
event.  Is it possible to distinguish this event from the down-and-
left-arrow key
that also sends in a KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER?  It appears that you get
either but not both "Done" or down-and-left-arrow buttons on the soft
keyboard.

Am I missing some documentation about this?

Is it "good UI" to have the "Done" key execute the action that would
normally
be done on an "OK" button?  E.g. for a username and password dialog
that has
two text fields and an OK button the user touches the username field,
gets
the soft keyboard, types, presses "Next", types, presses "Done" and
the
dialog submits the username and password and goes away.

Or is it "good UI" to force the user to explicitly touch the OK
button?  Possibly
having to also manually dismiss the soft keyboard if it covers up the
OK button.
