There is an ongoing effort at https://open-ui.org/ to add these basic primatives. I'm throwing my effort behind the <select> replacement and we welcome input from everyone.

If I can avoid writing another autocomplete and solving the Esc corner cases, the effort will have been worthwhile...

Thanks for bringing this up. I didn't know about open-ui. I think something like this is becoming more and more necessary.
