Description

When managing collaborators in repository settings, any changes to user permissions made just by using the keyboard to focus the drop down menu and arrows to select an item do not save. I looked at the HTML and saw that the saving only happens onclick, which isn't triggered when using the keyboard.

Because of this you can't set collaborator permissions with only the keyboard. This is a significant roadblock for accessibility.

Yes, I haven't written the rest of the dropdown menu accessibility code as I've been doing other things. I needed to do an audit of the dropdown menus in HTML for a reason I forget- I think so I could test all of them. I'll try having a shot at this sometime this month.

I think this issue is resolved. At least I could added @jookia as a collaborator in my test repo and set them permissions with just keyboard interaction.
