Probably nothing; it's not clear what browsers should do (and are
doing) when you change the focus during key events' handling
(particularly, when you change focus during keydown or keypress,
should the next keypress and keyup fire on the original target or the
newly focused element? and the same applies somehow for push buttons,
radio buttons, checkboxes and dropdowns; as you've been experiencing).
FYI, this is being discussed at the W3C.
What if you setFocus() in a DeferredCommand? that way, the focus
wouldn't have already been moved when the keyup event fire (so it'd
fire on the button, not the text box)
