DesignTime bug with usercontrol textbox...workaround?

dotnet windows forms designtime: If you place a textbox on a user control...then put that user control on a
form with a panel, then move the control to the panel, you then can activate
the textbox. In other words it no longer thinks it's in designMode. Anybody
know of this issue or a workaround?

I found a workaround, but I don't like it - if someone has a better idea
please tell me. The .NET combo box handles it successfully somehow, but I'm
not sure by what method. Anyhow what I did was the following:

override OnParentChanged()
{
if(DesignMode)
{
Controls.Remove(myTextBox);
Controls.Add(myTextBox);
}
}
