Select menu does not fully implement keyboard controls #8191

Description

  • I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Expected Behavior

The native browser select element allows you to move to options by typing arbitrary characters when the select menu is open. The newly added Select component (which is greatly appreciated by the way!) does not support this functionality.

Current Behavior

When select menu is open, and I type the label of an option that is not selected, nothing happens.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

  1. Open a Select component
  2. Start typing to select an option

Context

Material UI is an amazing asset, but in pursuit of the new and shiny, let's not abandon something as fundamental as basic select functionality :)

Your Environment
