Can't select comment autocomplete suggestions with keyboard

Description

Observed on .com in Firefox 20200713_enter_doesnt_work_to_select_mention

  • Start typing a comment and use @ or : to trigger the user or emoji suggestion dropdown.
  • In the video, you'll notice that <enter> is adding new lines instead of selecting the autocomplete item.

Investigation

It looks like this only effects the comment form in the Merge Request view 🤔

It also looks like this bug doesn't kick in until after a comment has already been left (see video below).
