Summary
Item template fields suggest index attributes so the user doesn't have to type them from memory. Until now, suggestions used a native
<datalist>, which varies across browsers, can't be keyboard-navigated reliably, and doesn't filter as you type in all environments.This PR replaces the datalist with a proper combobox dropdown:
role="combobox",role="listbox",aria-activedescendantfor screen readersThe combobox logic is extracted into a reusable
Comboboxprimitive (ui/combobox.tsx) so PRs #60 and #61 can adopt it forAttributeFieldandAgentIdFieldinstead of duplicating the same dropdown behavior.
