Hey guys, when opening a SystemBrowser and executing a "Find class..." command (with context menu or cmd-f with focus in the packages pane) there is a dialog listing the classes that matches whatever you type. So far so great. The problem is that time and again I use the arrows keys to select the one that I was looking for and press enter only to get a dialog closed in a no-op. Note that: 1. to make that dialog work, the only way is to use the mouse to click on OK or double click the target class and 2. the input even says: "Hit return to accept" so.. sebastian o/
