Win32lib focus problem

Try this piece of code:

without warning
include win32lib.ew
integer main, mle, msgedit

main = create(Window, "Click in the one-line text-edit and press enter", 0, 200,
200, 500, 300, 0)

mle = create(MleText, "", main, 0, 0, 450, 100, 0)
msgedit = create(EditText, "", main, 0, 150, 450, 23, 0)

WinMain(main, Normal)

Pressing enter in the EditText will automatically give focus to the MleText!
Why?
I tried to do a work-around by setting the focus to the EditText when
receiving a VK_ENTER keypress. Didn't work. The focus was still set to
the MleText. Then I tried setting focus to the MleText. And that gave focus
to the EditText! Win32lib seems to mix them up. And this work-around
will stop working when this bug is fixed :(
