AS3 Multiline Input Textfields contain one default newline.

Weird note of the day. If you place a multiline input Textfield on the stage (as opposed to creating it with the class constructor), it will contain a newline by default rather than the expected null. Simply reset it to proceed normally:
myTextField.text = ""
