Description

The following situation is something we often encounter in the character app:

  1. Have a page with an NcSelect as the first focusable element
  2. When user opens page NcSelect gets focused
  3. When an NcSelect is focused, it automatically opens
  4. NcSelect options cover rest of the content underneath, and it is annoying to close

Research direction

Start by reproducing the described behavior with NcSelect as the first focusable element on a page, then inspect the NcSelect component's focus and opening behavior. Done means focusing NcSelect does not open its options automatically, while intentional user opening still works.
