Having tested this, I see it is the mobile equivalent of returnInField
and has nothing to do with the loss of focus. The focus remains on the
field.
The dictionary is misleading and probably shouldn't mention focus at all
-- which it does three times.

Just to clarify: Your sample handler specifically removed focus, so I'm
assuming the engine doesn't do that. It sounds like inputReturnKey is the
mobile equivalent of the standard returnInField message, but for native fields.
But the ambiguous part is the dictionary reference to "the return key

I'd forgotten about this too. The description says:
"Handle the inputReturnKey message if you want to make changes to the
interface or perform an action when the return key is pressed and focus is
removed from an iosTextInput, androidTextInput or androidMultiline control."
This is ambiguous.

You could also try:
on returnInField
focus on nothing
end returnInField
in the field script. That seems to do the trick on desktop at least, whereas on
returnKey does not when it is placed in the field script.

It's not something you would put in a field. Focus on nothing is something you
send to lose focus on any object that currently has the focuw.
For instance, you have a field which calls a validation function upon
closeField. You have a button that saves the information in the field
somewhere. A

"These are just messages that the engine sends when the focus changes,
That is what I do whenever I need a closeField or exitField to trigger on a
currently entered field before running off and doing things. focus on nothing
is what you want.

On mobile
I have a UI (for searching audio)
where:
1) user make a text selection (search box)
2) need to dismiss the keyboard (having made the text selection, which remains)
3) so she can choose some other radio buttons: like "Title" or "Sub-title" or
"Genre" (this is a audio/music search UI)
Hmm. that nice "DONE" option is only for iOS
