Bug Description
After typing in a query and getting results, when using the keyboard, the user should not have to press down and then right to get to the results.
Should be a function sensing that the cursor is at the end of a word and then by pressing once more to the right jump to results, eliminating one redundant input from the user case.
What do you think?

Yes, this has bugged me for quite a while. Right now you can bypass it by pressing the Tab key.
The problem with using the Right arrow key is that the arrow keys are already used for moving the text cursor around. So the ideal behavior would be to only focus the app list if the cursor is already at the rightmost position (and maybe right after a search takes place too).
But since getting this right is not exactly trivial, and since this is not a blocker feature for Cardapio 1.0, I decided to postpone it. But rest assured that it *is* on my to-do list.
