Wow that's unintuitive. It says in the help and mentions intraframe editing like the animatte. Seems like it is different than regular intraframe keyframable effects like paint effect if you can have a start keyframe with one shape and an end keyframe with a modified shape and have the region morph accordingly between start and end. What you say discribes what I'm going through. Here's from the help menu:
To define a region for FluidMotion Edit:
1.
In the Display parameter category, click the Fast Menu button, and then select Warp 50% or Color Warp 50%.
Warp 50% shows the image generated by FluidMotion that is halfway between source material Image A and Image B. Color Warp 50% shows the same image, with an overlay of motion vector colors.
2.
(Option) Select Show Vectors to display the motion vector arrows.
3.
Step through your clip until you reach an image in which you want to make a correction.
4.
Select a shape from the drawing tools in the Effect Editor, and draw around the region that has the artifact.
You use the drawing tools in the same way as you would for Intraframe editing. You can copy, move, and modify any shape. For more information, see Intraframe Editing.
*
Use the Feathering and Brush parameters at any point during the correction process to help define and modify the selected area.

With that keyframe highlighted if I move the box just a little it pops to losing the warp in the box like it's supposed to. Something seems wrong here. Mac os 10.7.3 MC 6.0.3.2 with a nitris dx. Hmmmmmm not something I've done much of but it feels like a broke and I am in high quality green box mode otherwise none of the fluidmotion edit stuff works, that's another gotcha I hit.

That was a basically okay work around. But that doesn't address why the shape is not sticking when it's there in the beginning and end keyframe with no movement.
