Summary: Unnatural extra arrow key press after search
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.21.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)

Unnatural extra arrow key press after search
SUMMARY
When I perform a search and get multiple results, I now have to make an extra
arrow key press first to move the focus from the input field to the first
result, and only then I can move the selection to the second result. My muscle
memory from the past Kickoff and App Dasboard conflicts with this: a single
arrow key press there selects the second result. This seems more natural: if
you need the first result, you just press Enter; if you need the second result,
you press arrow and then Enter. In the new Kickoff, "Enter" and "arrow, Enter"
now do the same, which is weird and redundant.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Kickoff and search for something that gives multiple results
2. Press "Down" or "Up" on your keyoard, depending on launcher locaton, in the
direction of the second result
OBSERVED RESULT
First result is still selected
EXPECTED RESULT
Second result should now be selected
