You're right... this probably won't work on OS 5.  I'd used it in 
several apps, but hadn't tested it on the new OS.

However, I thought I'd seen this mentioned before... that's what clued 
me into it.  http://www.sleepless-night.com/cgi-
bin/twiki/view/Main/RepeatingButtonRate mentions seeing it on the 
forums, and I found one message online repeating it as earlier lore.
