New issue 21166 by tha...@chromium.org: Selecting items in completion popup  
menus doesn't autofill their textboxes.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=21166

Chrome Version       : 4.0.206.1
URLs (if applicable) :
OS version               : 10.5.8.
Behavior in Safari 3.x/4.x (if applicable): Works

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to a text box that you've used before, e.g. the search box on
crbug.com
2. Enter a letter
3. Press down to select something from the completion popup

What is the expected result?

The text from the popup should be copied to the text box, but the part of
it that was newly inserted should be selected, so that i can "type over" it  
if
I want (e.g. if I enter "th" and then select "thakis", "akis" should be  
inserted,
but selected).

What happens instead?

The text is not inserted. It _is_ sent when hitting enter, but I often  
select
something from that popup and edit it a bit afterwards, which is not
possible.

The "should happen" behavior is how it works in Safari and TextEdit, and
everywhere else where stuff is completed.
