Considered, and dismissed. I have seen numerous admonitions against 
relying on the change event, primarily because of browser differences in 
interpretation of the what and when of change.

Additionally I don't see how it could work unless I test and save the 
selected state of the group so that I can restore it later if necessary. 
If I have to loop through the radios; record which is selected; then 
reselect if necessary, I can use a couple different triggers.  I was 
hoping I could intercept the process early enough that nothing toggles 
until the user confirms the action. That may not be possible, or it may 
mean creating a new event listener.
