This is correct behavior.  Menus are supposed to leave the highlight on the
previously selected command.

Why this *doesn't* always happen is when some other form gets becomes active
before the next time you open the menu.  That causes the menu to get
unloaded and reloaded again, and then it forgets the highlight position.  So
if most of an app's menu commands invoke dialogs, it gives the impression
that menus never remember the selection.  I don't think it's worth worrying
about.

Try it with the Edit menu in a simple field: the Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste, and
Select All commands remember the menu selection but Keyboard and Graffiti
Help forget it.
