Description

Current behavior
When initially searching for anything the UX of the multi-select-filtered-dropdown is strange:

  • The entries can be filtered using the input field
  • The selection stays on the very first (then invisible) entry of the list

Wanted behavior
When the drop-down is filtered the selection cursor should jump to the first entry in the new selection
and only the highlighted item should be added if enter is pressed

Research direction

Find the multi-select-filtered-dropdown component and reproduce the behavior by filtering its entries, checking which item remains selected, and pressing Enter. Done means filtering moves the selection to the first visible entry and Enter adds only the highlighted item.
