Hi

Have been trying to fix this issue for a while now by adding custom focus to dropdown elements once the user presses the up/down arrow keys , but there are a number of issues arising because of the same. For example , the dropdown doesn't automatically scroll down once the focus exceeds the page (Tried tickling tabindex values but in vain )

Soon , I opened a discussion in instantsearch.js regarding the same issue and was suggested to use autocomplete instead , since this feature was lacking in instantsearch.js .

Should the search functionality in electron be re-modified as per autocomplete instead @vhashimotoo or is this feature not too important to shift from instantsearch to autocomplete ?
