Summary

  • Guard onKeydown in inputListeners with event.isComposing to prevent Enter/Escape from intercepting IME confirmation keys during composition (e.g. Japanese input)
  • Add defense-in-depth isComposing guard on onInput for older compiled versions where the handler fell through $attrs as a native InputEvent
  • Add IME composition test coverage (4 tests)

Context

Japanese users couldn't type the first character in the disposition combobox during post-call wrap-up. The onKeydown handler falls through $attrs to the native <input>, so it fires during IME composition — pressing Enter to confirm an IME candidate triggers onEnterKey → selects a list item → clears the input, destroying the composition.

A firespotter-side workaround is already merged (PR #81582). This is the upstream Dialtone fix.

Test plan

  • All 54 combobox_multi_select tests pass (including 4 new IME tests)
  • Manual: Open a combobox multi-select, switch to Japanese IME, type a character, confirm with Enter — should insert the character, not select a list item

The onKeydown handler in inputListeners falls through $attrs to the native
<input>, so it fires during IME composition. Pressing Enter to confirm an IME
candidate was intercepting the composition and selecting a list item instead.

Guard onKeydown with event.isComposing to skip processing during composition.
Add a defense-in-depth guard on onInput for older compiled versions where the
handler also fell through $attrs as a native InputEvent.

Tests added:
- onKeydown suppressed during IME composition (Enter and Escape)
- onKeydown works normally after compositionend
- onInput suppressed when native InputEvent has isComposing true

Review Change Stack

Fixes Japanese IME input in DtComboboxMultiSelect. Composition guards prevent keydown and input handlers from processing IME confirmation events. Four tests cover composition behavior and post-composition Enter handling.

Overall Judgement: ✅ Ready to merge — The implementation includes focused regression tests, and all 54 combobox_multi_select tests pass.

Walkthrough

The combobox now ignores input and keyboard events during IME composition. Tests verify event suppression during composition and Enter handling after compositionend.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to ba003

The change prevents IME confirmation keys from clearing or selecting combobox values while preserving normal input behavior. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

Full details: Docs-To-Code Alignment

Explanation

The PR changes documented component behavior but does not update the relevant API documentation. The new guards suppress input, keydown, escape, and enter during IME composition. The component’s published event descriptions still say that keydown, Escape, and Enter fire when pressed in the text input, without the composition exception. apps/dialtone-documentation/docs/components/combobox-multi-select.md and the Storybook MDX remain unchanged. The documentation site renders event descriptions from the component JSDoc, so the API documentation will be stale after merge.

Full details: Disabled Test Tracking

Explanation

The pull request does not neutralize any test. The commit diff adds four IME tests and changes one Vue event-handler guard; it does not skip, ignore, disable, xfail, exclude, quarantine, comment out, rename, or delete an existing test. The existing disabled-behavior tests remain collected and executable.

P1 Badge Track composition state instead of trusting isComposing

On Safari, the Enter keydown that confirms an IME candidate can arrive after compositionend with event.isComposing === false (often retaining legacy key code 229), so this guard falls through to onInputKeyDown and still selects/clears the input for the Japanese IME scenario this change is intended to fix. The added tests only synthesize the Chrome-style isComposing: true event and therefore miss this path; track compositionstart/compositionend state or account for Safari's composition keydown behavior.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Parameterize the duplicate IME cases and keep one assertion per test.

The Enter and Escape tests repeat the same setup. Each test also contains two assertions. Use it.each with the key and emitted event name, then make one combined assertion.

Proposed test refactor
-    it('should not emit keydown/enter during IME composition', async () => {
+    it.each([
+      ['Enter', 'enter'],
+      ['Escape', 'escape'],
+    ])('should not emit keydown/%s during IME composition', async (key, eventName) => {
       await input.trigger('compositionstart');
-      await input.trigger('keydown', { key: 'Enter', code: 'Enter', isComposing: true });
-      expect(wrapper.emitted('keydown')).toBeUndefined();
-      expect(wrapper.emitted('enter')).toBeUndefined();
-    });

     });

As per path instructions, packages/dialtone-vue/**/*.test.js requires one assertion per test and it.each for similar tests with different values.

Definitely an issue, but we should try to use the existing composition handling in DtInput if we can.

We're duplicating a check that's already in DtInput itself.

DtComboboxMultiSelect's inputListeners forwards raw onInput/onKeydown via $attrs straight onto the native <input> inside DtInput, bypassing DtInput's own guarded handlers entirely.

Add a guarded keydown emit to DtInput (reusing its existing isComposing/justEndedComposition state), and have this component listen via @keydown/@input instead of forwarding $attrs onto the native input. Then composition-awareness lives in one place, and every wrapper inherits it for free. Also you'll get the mentioned safari fix for free 🙂.
