            Bug ID: 359933
           Summary: Quick Open and Outline popups behave unexpectedly.
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 4.90.91
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: UI: all modes
          Assignee: [email protected]

When entering text in a toolbar widget, there's a typical behaviour pattern for
completion-list dropdowns:
 - Entries are highlighted when moused-over, and chosen when clicked on.
 - Up/down arrows highlight the previous/next entry in the dropdown. 'Tab'
selects the next entry. 'Enter' chooses the highlighted entry.
 - The dropdown is hidden when an entry has been chosen.
 - The dropdown is hidden when clicking anywhere outside it, including in the
textbox or on the toolbar.

E.g. Dolphin and KDE filepicker pathname boxes, KDevelop documentation search
box, GIMP brush selection, [...].

More generally, this is the expected behaviour for any dropdown on a toolbar
item (e.g. KDevelop forward/back/code buttons).

The Quick Open and Outline entry boxes behave very differently:
 - Clicking on the dropdown hides it.
   - Including the scrollbar handle and arrows!
 - Moused-over elements aren't highlighted, nor are they chosen when clicked on
(that hides the dropdown...)
 - Clicking on the textbox, the toolbar, or various other UI elements doesn't
hide the dropdown. Clicking in the editor panel or inside a toolview does.

Up/down/tab/enter do behave as normal.

Reproducible: Always
