[Kss-devel] how to remove focus from text <input>?

I have an app with a text field that, once I'm done saving the value
the user entered, I hide with an appropriate adjustment of the form's
class.  The problem is that, once the form has its "visibility:
hidden", Firefox still keeps the text cursor in the text field - I can
see it still sitting there, even though the form and text field around
it is now invisible, and I can even see it move back and forth as I
type; and by hitting Enter, I can still submit it!

I see from this web page:

  http://codespeak.net/svn/kukit/docs/introducing_kss/trunk/3-shipped-kss-plugins.txt

(which, by the way, is the most complete documentation I have found so
far for KSS) that KSS supports a "focus" action that can *give* focus
to a form field.  But I want a "takeFocusAway" action. :-) Does KSS
support anything like that?  Or is the whole idea of hiding a form,
when the user is done with it, daft?

Thanks for any advice!
