Bug Description

Hover over a part in eeschema and move. If I use the mouse to move the part at this point, it works without issues, however if I instead use the arrow keys to move the part, pressing Enter to place it in a new position results in it jumping back to its original location (where the mouse still is).

I think this is probably the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1788075 - that bug says it works in eeschema, but I can reproduce this in eeschema, so maybe that's no longer true.

I was able to use the Enter key until I updated to that revision. Eeschema has been giving me a lot of other weird behavior since that update that I can't seem to recreate.
