What you see if the conflict between the Tcl/Tk focus model in the entry widget, and Pd's custom focus model handled completely separately from Tcl/Tk.
The focus issue doesn't happen in play mode, only edit mode, so its something you'll have to live with when using that object.
Some day I hope to finish the tkwidgets library, which aims to address stuff like this. Contributes are welcome :)
