Under 2.x, buttons such as "Set" in the font panel and "OK" in alerts had
return symbols on them all the time, even if the panel wasn't key. This was
misleading as you could hit return while the font panel was up, but it would
only work if the panel was key. If not, it would erase your selection
(as you describe).

Under 3.0, the return symbol appears on these default buttons only when
the panel is key. Make the font panel key and you will see the return symbol
appear on the button. This is supposed to prevent you from hitting return at
the wrong time; it does seem to help.
