2.4.0 UI Issue under OS X

Using 2.4.0 (r19974 built 2010-12-26) from the downloaded dmg under OS X 10.5.8, I have noticed an intermittent oddity that I don't understand. 

There are times (not yet reliably reproducible) when I run a report or process (such as reconciling) where the toolbar or dialog buttons will not initially respond to a direct click. In other words, I select a report and run it, and then attempt to click the Options button on the toolbar, and the button does nothing. The button will only respond if I click on a blank part of the toolbar first; after that, the button responds. It appears (although I haven't been able to pin this down for sure, either) that all subsequent tries in the session work.

As I said, this only happens intermittently, and each time it happens, I'm usually not paying attention to the immediate actions prior to the event (actually, each time, I think I imagine it, but it keeps happening). It seems almost as if I need to tell the application manually that I am interested in the button on the toolbar--similar to the fact that when I return to a register, I have to tell the application that I am still interested in entering data in the transaction.

Cheers,
David
