Comment(by stevage):

 Two comments:
 1) Is the "tab for skip autocomplete, enter for accept" common? I've been
 using Potlatch for ages and I didn't know about tab. It's not super
 intuitive.

 2) From the code it looks like Escape is supposed to work this way, but
 there's a bug that causes the drop-down to reopen. The cascade of
 triggered events is too complicated for me to fix, but it appears that
 line 1954 of ComboBox.as (ie, Flex code) intercepts the Escape key,
 calling displayDropdown(false)...which causes commitProperties() in
 AutoComplete.as to get called, which reopens the dropdown. Ugh.
