[ACK] BUG: 6.3 Beta 2: ENTER doesn't submit/commit Label dialog

I created a Highlighting style that implies a Label:

Then I selected some text and applied that highlighting style, using the keyboard shortcut I had applied to the style.

The dialog box came up asking me to fill in the author's name:

I typed it in and pressed Enter (the first time I guess it merely accomplishes the same as clicking on the right arrow, namely to select the appropriate entry from the dropdown menu -- which isn't shown in this screenshot; I'd already pressed Enter once).

But then I tried pressing Enter again as a shortcut for clicking "Done" and nothing happened.

Expect: Enter to execute "Done" just like it executes "Submit" on the Report Typo dialog.

Note that pressing Escape does dismiss this dialog, so the Windows standard would be for Enter to "OK" it (in this case, same as clicking Done). I'm willing to have to press Enter twice (first time to select from the dropdown list, second time to OK the dialog). But having to mix keyboard input with mouse clicking is a pain. Apart from that one little glitch, this whole operation can be done from the keyboard, because the focus (correctly) goes to the right edit box immediately when the dialog comes up, so you don't need to click there.
