A solution is to re-work the layout. 
Have only one input box with an add button (nice tick or something). When 
the user types their request and hits the tick it is inserted into the 
list. This can then keep growing and the CreateMagicList controller should 
remain functional. It will therefore not require a focus apart from on the 
initial load.

I was thinking something like this: http://todo.breezejs.com/
