Description

The alarm clock app windows (both the main app window and pop up messages) are unique in that they capture all keyboard input when moused over. This is indicated by the light, gear, and brake action group indicators being grayed out. This is a design flaw because it can unexpectedly interrupt flight control during mission critical events like landing. No other app behaves this way to the best of my knowledge. The alarm clock app should behave the same way as every other app. The only possible exception should be when entering numbers into a text field.
