Description

## Description
From a user via email:

> I've used CC before without problems. This time, I chose the license type, filled in the attribution fields, but no 'done' button provided. It just hangs on 'waiting for required fields'.

> I filled the option for CC-BY-NC-ND and all of the optional attribution fields. I'm using win10 Pro, Firefox 140.0.4
> Can't think of anything else. The 'done'/'back' buttons don't even show up on chooser, so I think it's on your end. No problems with other websites.

It should be noted that the Chooser does not have a Done or Back button anymore as they were redundant in the previous beta version and were removed due to their confusing implementation. The current Chooser live updates once all required fields are entered.

However, despite that confusion of expectation from one version of the Chooser to the other, the results should have displayed given the input they provided above. They claim that all they get is the default "waiting for required fields" message.

## Expectation

The results should load if all required fields are entered properly.

## Resolution

- [ ] I would be interested in resolving this bug.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Reproduce the CC-BY-NC-ND flow with the reported attribution fields in Firefox 140.0.4 on Windows 10, then inspect why the Chooser remains on “waiting for required fields”; done means the results display when all required fields are supplied.
