Description

Originally by rzenz


When the unbuffered editing mode in the Grid is activated, pressing Enter (the key) does forward the editing to the next row/item. However, the selection of the grid is not changed.

Shouldn't the selection always be on the current row which is edited?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Grid with unbuffered editing enabled, then inspect the Grid's Enter-key editing and row-selection handling. Done means advancing with Enter also moves the selection to the row currently being edited, with regression coverage for that interaction.
