I'll try that of course, but why would that work differently on Mac than on
Windows?

It has something to do with what the engine needs to do to put the Mac menu into the system menubar. Whatever that is, it's the same reason you can't put scripts in menu buttons for Mac, you have to put them into the menu group. I think the buttons are essentially virtualized on a Mac and don't really exist when the menu is active in the system bar.

The target is the object that directly received the last message. On a Mac that would be the group (since the buttons aren't "real" there and didn't really receive a click. The first object to receive a message would be the group.) On Windows, the target would be the button itself because on that OS, the buttons really are a part of the object hierarchy.
