 tab changes selection to map (starting with typed letters) in the next
 mapset, enter confirms the selection and closes the popup. Don't be
 surprised that the action is performed after releasing the key (and not
 pressing down), it's the same problem I mentioned before.

 The features you mention do not work on my Mac.

 The down arrow does open the popup, but arrows do not work after that. I
 assume that the binding for opening the popup has trapped all arrow
 function. Most people would probably like to have the arrows available to
 move up and down the map list.

 The tab key just switches back and forth between the entry box and the
 page tabs at the top of the dialog.
