I think 5.3 shortened the list and gave priority to most recently used,
as well as added a Do Not Fill option at the top.
I understand keyboards vary, but you can use the arrow keys to navigate
the list (or keep typing to narrow it down)

I haven't upgraded quite that far yet, but I am on 5.x on macOS and I
also don't have the problem described by the OP. Regardless, I am
definitely not a fan of the new feature. Previously, I could type a few
letters and have the field populated how I wanted, now I have to select
from a huge list after typing the same letters, so I find it incredibly
inconvenient and prefer the way the memo field (still) works. I don't
mind the popup, tbh, I just wish the field was still filled in the old
way so I could hit tab and be done instead of having to go to the mouse
and select from a list. That having been said, as a general observation
(across many different softwares over the last few years vs a GnuCash
specific observation), it sure seems like convenience features get less
and less convenient and interfere with previously built-in convenient
functionalty more and more as software gets more complicated.
