Dear Tim, I have experienced something similar - don't know if it's the same thing as you:

My trackpad is set to accept clicks via 'taps', and also to accept contextual-menu clicks (control+click) as two-fingered taps. Because of that setting, I've noticed in LiveCode that when I am typing something extensive, sometimes a stray thumb or lazy hand will accidentally touch the trackpad, and trigger the 'control-click', leaving the field unresponsive. The first time this happened, it left me quite puzzled, as nothing seemed to respond: pressing tabs, returns, etc, would yield no result. I had to 'click out' somewhere, and the click back on the field. Switching that setting in System Preferences seemed to fix this. I, however, do like to have my two-fingered clicks, so I just put up with having to click-out-and-in every now and then... As I said, this may have nothing to do with your issue, but it just sounded similar...
