ComboBox: hitting enter when options are visible should select the first option. about react-spectrum HOT 1 OPEN

We had initially planned to include a completionMode props that would implement the aria-autocomplete="both" pattern described below:

The aria-autocomplete property describes the type of autocompletion interaction model a textbox, searchbox, or combobox will use when dynamically helping users complete text input. It distinguishes between two models: the inline model (aria-autocomplete="inline"), which presents a single predicted value and the list model (aria-autocomplete="list"), which presents a collection of possible values in a separate element that pops up next to or below the text input, similar to a . A third value, aria-autocomplete="both" is for when the interface will present a list while also including a predicted value. The default is none, meaning the textbox, searchbox, or combobox will not provide an auto complete value.

We ran into some issues with screen readers, but we plan to revisit this.

I think adding an option to auto-focus the first element is another option to potentially explore.
