it had to do with the special treatment that widget-field-at provides
for fields named 'boundary.  however, i think i no longer need that
provision, so can use any field name.

i see different behavior when i use an arbitrarily named field in my
example.  it's closer to what i need, as long as i don't put the
cursor near the border between the fields or in the structure side,
but there are still some problematic behaviors.  i'm attaching a new
version of the script which describes exactly what's going on.
