A note on a (Firefox specific) bug and a UX impediment that somebody (maybe me :-)) might want to pick up once

1. The tiddlywiki.com link at the top of the "static export" pages is not clickable in Firefox, e.g. http://tiddlywiki.com/static/HelloThere.html
2. When I want to add an existing tag to a tiddler, I go to the tag input field and start typing. Then I select the tag from the drop-down list. Intuitively, I would want to select it with the keyboard, i.e. using the "arrow down" key. However, at least in Firefox this does not work, as the autocompletion list does not receive focus.

I've found myself bumping into the second bug very often, press the down key would indeed be a very nice feature to be able to select the entries from the list.
Also pressing enter could enter either the typed text or the first entry on the list.

Thanks, I've committed a fix for 5.1.8:

That is a much requested feature, as you can see from the age of the first ticket about it:
As you might infer, the reason that it hasn't been done yet is because it's non-trivial to implement. But it is definitely needed.
Best wishes
Jeremy.
