Created attachment 360256 [details] Screen capture Seen on iOS 12.1.1 (16C50). Steps to reproduce: 1. Visit <https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MU8G2LL/A/smart-keyboard-folio-for-11-inch-ipad-pro-us-english?fnode=9d>. 2. Tap the language picker to open a popover. 3. Press g on the keyboard. Then German will be selected and the popover is dismissed. This does not feel natural. I like the AppKit behavior where the menu intercepts the key events. We should consider implementing similar behavior. (Similarly dismissal behavior is seen when you use the arrow keys) (Note this behavior is site-specific and is the result of key events being passed to WebCore when the popover is up.)
