Description

When I click "Search people" in the keybase windows app I get a dialog with "Search Keybase". I type a name, hit enter, and the dialog closes. Quite annoying.

It does start the search itself after a short delay, but 1) I hit enter before that and would like to not have to wait, and 2) hitting enter after typing a search term is a reflex...

Please fix? 🤔

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Windows app by opening "Search people," entering a name, and pressing Enter before and after the delayed search starts. Trace the Search Keybase dialog's Enter-key handling and verify that Enter submits the search without closing the dialog unexpectedly.
