I'm fairly sure this is good to go but can't take this on anymore.

If we continue assuming that this once worked it would be awesome to document a theory why/when this broke - maybe there are other implementations with the same problem.

Nice. We discussed the "job solution" a bit and in my understanding it would both cater to the performance concerns doing all this work during the web request, as well as making the topic area of waiting for replication largely irrelevant. Win win (at quite a bit of effort and added complexity).

cf. ResizingTextField implementation

This here is talking about the "if" (and the "what if not") while T261851#6461737 recently talked about the "how".

thanks for the response.

This was resolved in T198455: Unify WikibaseLexeme vue templates

Seems we are good for a while and there are no plans to actively develop rb-based browser tests any more so closing this makes sense in my eyes.

This should have been closed a long time ago. Thanks!

Use of wikimedia-ui-base in termbox is a fact.
The next step should be T268110: stop consuming wikimedia-ui-base directly in termbox, i.e. using wikit instead.

This seems to have gone away - unclear based on which change.

Adding @thiemowmde on the off chance that their last commit in ComboBoxInputWidget has something to do with this.

@rosalieper and I looked at this and filed T268139: ComboBoxInputWidget: does not close when tabbing out with selected value as it seems this is a problem in upstream OOUI as well and probably should be fixed there. We may not be the best candidates to try and fix this in the upstream ourself, because there are probably people who can do this quicker than us.
