[OS X TeX] TeXShop holds files open

Does anybody else notice this behavior?  It's driving me crazy!

Once TeXShop has gotten hold of a file, it doesn't let go.  When I 
throw away a log file, close
all the open files in the program, and then later try to empty the 
trash, I can't--because TeXShop
still has the file open.  Not to mention the source file or any of the 
other files associated with the project.

This isn't the only Mac app to exhibit this behavior, but I use this 
app so often this is surely the most annoying program to do so.

Anybody have a solution?  Of course, I could just quit the program.  
But the fast switch is really useful,
so I like to keep most programs open once I've finished with them.
