Prevent focus defaulting to situation name when editing/viewing a situation
Currently causes an irritating issue with the HTC Hero where the on-screen keyboard pops up whenever you view an existing situation. Not sure if it's also occurs with other non-hardware keyboard Android devices like the HTC Magic.
Steps to Recreate:
1. Start Locale on HTC Hero
2. Tap a listed situation
Result:
On the HTC Hero, the situation page will come up as expected. However, the on-screen keyboard then appears due to the situation name being in focus.
It's a minor annoyance as you can dismiss the keyboard, but if you are in a rush and expecting to quickly scroll down you can inadverently start renaming the situation.
Expected solution:
On the page load it may be worth not defaulting focus to the situation name field or any other text field.
It may be worth making renaming a situation a more explicit operation due to how how rarely it is performed.
Sorry about the length of this suggestion :)
This should have been fixed with the updates in September, but I am unable to test this with the G1. So if it is fixed, please leave a comment.

Thanks for sorting this one out.
I can confirm that on my HTC Hero this issue is fixed.

I notice the same effect on my Magic.

I really appreciate "proper" bug reports!
This is actually difficult for me to test, since I don't have a Magic or Hero (and this does not occur on the G1...).
I'll investigate further though...
