Enter no longer accidentally submits a text field in a list, and arrows can leave the list.
What's wrong with this entry?
Anonymous. No account, no email.
What
In lists that mix pickable options with a text-entry option, pressing Enter while on the text field no longer accepts it as a selection, and the accepted value is read at the moment you press Enter so a stale highlight cannot be submitted. Pressing down on the last option or up on the first now moves focus out of the list instead of sticking.
Details
- Applies to down/up and to ctrl-n/ctrl-p.
- Edge navigation calls the list's exit-downward and exit-upward handlers and stops the key from being handled further.
