[moneydance] Does anyone else have a problem with this user interface behavior?

I agree that in this situation, escape or cancel should simply leave the 
transaction state unaltered. OTOH, I think this has happened to me a grand 
total of maybe half a dozen times in almost two years of MD use, and those 
were cases where I had finished entry or modification and forgot to record. 
Why? Because I never use the mouse to record; I hit Enter instead. Getting 
rid of the buttons to click on was great for me, since when I'm editing an 
existing transaction, only one transaction is hidden instead of two. I know 
that some people prefer to mouse more, but in this case I'm already 
keyboarding and never saw a reason to move my hands. I suppose the fact 
that I came from Q, which also did it this way, was another factor.
