Prefix Navigation

[ ]
When the user types a character in the text-entry field, move the cursor in the associated list to the next item whose label matches the prefix, enter the character into the text-entry field, and place the text cursor after the character. Keep the input focus in the text-entry field.

[ ]
When the user types a character in the text-entry field and there is no item matching the prefix in the list, generate a warning signal.

[ ]
If focus is in a text-entry field that uses prefix navigation, and the associated list box is not displayed, display the list box when the user types a printing character.

[ ]
When prefix navigation is used to move the cursor in a list, do not automatically select the cursored item unless required to do so by the selection model in use.
