Yes! I was reloading BaseFocusScript. Oops.

In detail: script files are dynamically loaded when first requested and can be reloaded for debugging. I think that's safe because script files are self-contained (e.g. the classes in them are never subclassed or anything like that). But I went too far: I had my focus scripts reload BaseFocusScript, which is shared code, so that I could tweak BaseFocusScript while debugging focus scripts.

Thank you very much!
