      Description

      The bugs that I've seen while working on this component have been very inconsistent, and I haven't been able to discern a pattern in regards to what causes each of them. As such, I'll just list the various errors that I've seen below. All have been observed while testing the showcase ace:autoCompleteEntry with the keyboard, and all only appear some of the time.

      -Typing a text value removes focus from the autoCompleteEntry component's input field when the list of possible matches comes up, meaning that it needs to be reclicked before more typing can be done, or keyboard navigation can begin. (IE Only)

      -Attempting to select a highlighted value with the enter key is ignored. The dropdown list disappears, but no change is seen in the contents of the text field.

      -Selecting a highlighted value with the enter key copies the selected value into the text field, but the component still displays a full list of options, which do not match the full value that was just entered.

      -Selecting a highlighted value with the enter key copies the selected value into the text field, but the component displays a list of only a single element (that of the value just selected). Sometimes, re-selecting this value with keys/enter gets rid of it. Other times, it disappears after 3/4 attempts of that. Other times, it persists indefinitely. In any of the above cases, clicking on it or double-tapping the enter key (selecting the element, then setting the value before the list can reappear) will stop the list from re-displaying.
