(There are really two ways of dealing with this . . . The not so painful, but

A note to those using Suitcase--  If you hold Option while selecting
the Apple menu, you don't see any DAs, just the application list.  The
trick is to FIRST select the Apple menu, THEN press Option, and hold
it until you have let the mouse button up over the DA selected.
