Public bug reported:
When I add a new printer, first the printer discovery happens. An empty
list appears and at the bottom a spinner is showing that some work is
done, then in the list window at first the local (USB) printers appear
and several seconds later the network printers. When I want to set up a
local printer I click on it as soon as it appears and do not wait for
the discovery process to finish. Now during the discovery process the
list is updated every few seconds and whenever this happens the
selection jumps back to the first entry in the list. If this happens
between selecting the desired printer and clicking the OK button, the
first entry in the list gets added and not the desired one.
What has to be done is keeping the selection on the entry which the user
has clicked all the time, also during the updates of the list, so that
if the user clicks OK at any time the entry he has selected gets used.
To reproduce, connect at least two local (USB) printers and have also at
least one network or Bluetooth printer. Select the second local printer
before the network and/or Bluetooth printers appear. Observe the list,
after some seconds the selection goes back to the first entry.
