There seems to be a problem with string gadgets.  When you select one, do
anything with it, and press return, then the program gets the GADGETUP
message, it doesn't like your input and decides to change the contents of
the gadget, it RemoveGList()s it, changes the string, AddGList()s it,
and RefreshGList()s it, guess what?  The cursor stays there, but it isn't
actually still selected because if you click outside of the gadget the
cursor stays there.  Nasty, and I can't figure out how to fix it.  (BTW,
if you want a demonstration, I believe the "Path" gadget in DPaint II
has that problem.)

P.S.  I really don't want to be nasty and display the text directly.
