Bug Description
At present, I see no obvious way to quickly navigate this list via the keyboard. Although one can arrow through the selections, there are a lot of them, and the process of finding the right one can be extremely tedious, especially if using a screen reader. The implementation of first letter navigation would significantly improve the accessibility of this control.
