How to filter RCP key bindings like escape key ? [message #723388]

Hello,

I would like the {ENTER} key would be handled as an out-of-order event to by pass key bindings like the {ESC} key that works well as designed with WorkbenchKeyboard#isOutOfOrderKey(List).
I use a AutoCompleteField on a combo, and I cannot select proposal item : The event is eaten by the key binding handler.

I can provide a project to demonstrate the problem.

Regards.

There were several parameters that comes into account:
- There was a handler on {ENTER} so when user hit {ENTER} to choose an item from auto complete combo, the event was catched first by handler.
- The auto complete combo control was customized to replace value if current written is invalid.

SOLUTION:
1st: use jface keybinding for combo
2nd: remove {ENTER} context when proposal dialog is opened.
