Correction, the typed selection DOES NOT stick if the dropdown is open and you Tab off the control.

  You need to add one line of code that short-circuits the Tab character. After the line in the typeAhead() function that reads var charCode = evt.keyCode;, add the following line:
  
  if (charCode == 9) { return true; }
  
  That appears to do the trick.
