cut, copy, undo keyboard shortcuts in standalones

For user editing text in fields, I am finding that keyboard shortcuts for copy, cut, and undo do not work in standalones. These keyboard shortcuts work in development mode, and paste works in both dev and standalones. This behavior is seen in my LiveCode 5.0 and 6.0 versions on Mac (not tested in Win). All the keyboard shortcuts worked in Rev 4.5 standalones. Anyone else seeing this? Bug or feature? My workaround so far is to put these commands in stack script:

-- these need check, e.g., if word 1 of the focusedObject is "field" then...

on copyKey
copy the selection
end copyKey

on cutKey
copy the selection
delete the selection
end cutKey

on undoKey
undo
end undoKey

Jean-Marc,

Thank you. Looks like this is a feature and not a bug. I thought my standalones from Rev 4.5 and earlier didn't need this but maybe I'm mistaken.
