WORadioButtons question

Hi again everyone!

I feel like there's something I'm not getting here (which means I'm  
about to learn something again - yea!) and I'm hoping for some  
clarity ...

I have a site I'm working on that has a "ControlComponent" which  
determines whether nested components in a WOSwitchComponent are in  
view mode, edit mode, add mode or delete mode. Across the top of the  
"ControlComponent" are 4 WORadioButtons, each with the "name" binding  
set to "RADIOBUTTONGROUP" (to try to make them act like radio  
buttons:), to determine the boolean state of each of those ivars  
(isViewing, isEditing, isAdding and isDeleting). Simple, and it all  
works as expected. Except ...

Sometimes when you switch from one button to the other, I get only  
one call to set the selected value to true. Other times I get two  
calls, one to set the *former* value to false and the second one to  
set the selected value to true. Worst part is I can't see any real  
pattern, it looks totally random whether or not I get a call to set  
the former value to false.

I can handle either situation and can even code to handle both, but I  
feel like there's something I'm missing here. Shouldn't this be more  
consistent than this?

Did I do something wrong here? I saw the WORadioButtonList object,  
which claims to be deprecated and the WXRadioButtonList, which looks  
- well, like more than I really need. Or do I?
