1Password for Safari's keyboard focus doesn't get set properly for the filling prompt

Version 8.10.46.34 has once again broken initial keyboard focus. Copied from my previous thread the last time this issue cropped up:

In Safari when the list of items to choose from when filling into a form is displayed, the keyboard focus remains in the form element and not on the list.

Previously, you just had to hit the down arrow to select the first item, and thus just hit down + return to fill the item.

Now, you have to hit tab first to focus the list, and then down + return to fill the item.

Just wanted to pass on thanks to 1Password for keeping track of this issue since, as noted in the release notes for Mac version 8.12.26:

In Safari, pressing the down arrow in a field now focuses the first suggestion in the inline menu.

I can confirm that it works as it used to and all is well again!

This may seem like a trivial matter, but it does weaken 1PW's seamlessness. It was known as a problem in September 2023, fixed in February 2024, and then reported as a problem again in September 2024. At this rate, should we expect it to be fixed in February, 2025?

I'm sorry for the continued inconvenience. The issue remains open with our development team, hopefully a permanent fix is released soon.

Just wanting to keep this somewhat top-of-mind-adjacent as this issue continues through to today's 8.10.80 release.

Thanks for following up. Our team has investigated and have concluded that this is due to a limitation in Safari, unfortunately the previous workaround that we were relying on to focus the inline menu no longer works. Other browsers like Chrome and Firefox are not affected.

We've filed feedback with Apple and hopefully improvements will be made in a future update.
