[Opensource] Concept of a Default Button?

Hey All,
As some of you know, Expresso figures out which button was pressed on a
form based upon the button name, and then gets the appropriate state
information from a hidden parameter named <button name>_param
The problem on most of these forms is if the user hits enter on the form,
the form is submitted but officially no 'button_name=' parameter gets sent
since technically a button wasn't pressed. The problem is that this causes
all sorts of interesting issues because the system then assumes initial
state for the controller and sends you there. [Usually, you're back to the
prompt state]
So! Any folks have any naming conventions, etc to specify default
buttons? Perhaps in the Transitions in a Response have a default='y'
attribute set for the Transition you want default?
Thoughts?
