Description When you press '@', it aututomatically opens the Mention screen and you can filter the users.   It would be nice if this can behave like the combobox which autimatically filters the list of names. Or at the very least, when i press enter, it could allow me to press arrow down and the focus moves to the grid so i can select the person i need to mention.   The best thing is if we can launch a combobox on runtime and allow us to do something like this (like in iNet)   !pastedImage_d38591_0.png! Then i can just arrow down and pick or type the name.   If we cannot do it the iNet way, the Jira way is also nice.   !pastedImage_d38591_1.png!   The main difference is it opens a screen with only one button (cancel). you can type, arrow down, pick the right person and press enter.   I guess for out users, an OK button beside CANCEL would be nice because they might not know that they can hit enter key. It makes it more intuitive for some of our users who may have some impression that i21 always requires mouse.
