🐛 Bug Report

When the combobox is set to autocomplete="both", it is changing its value to equal the item that autocompletes. This causes other items that should match the entered text to be filtered out.

💻 Repro or Code Sample

1. In the Storybook combobox page, set autocomplete to both and choose "Many options"
2. Type "S"

🤔 Expected Behavior

All of the "Sue..." items should be visible

😯 Current Behavior

Only the first matching item, "Sue (1)", is visible.

💁 Possible Solution

@atmgrifter00 says

So I think I have an understanding of why the combobox behaves the way it does, and it basically involves us putting in some workarounds to make the combobox behave more like a text field, which FAST wasn't ready (or willing) to do. Unfortunately, we just had an oversight resulting in this bug, which the fix for is, annoyingly enough, likely going to involve some more state management for the filter text.

🔦 Context

This was originally reported as an SLE bug: Bug 2670859: Nimble combo box | Drop down does not filter the matched text correctly

That will likely be fixed by migrating to a filterable select. Another possible workaround is to use autocomplete="list".
