Improvements
TinyMCE 8.7.0 also includes the following improvement<s>:
Pressing Tab or Shift+Tab on an open menu now closes it and moves focus to the next or previous focusable element
Previously, pressing Tab or Shift+Tab inside an open dropdown menu cycled focus through the menu items instead of closing the menu. This behavior did not align with accessibility guidelines, which recommend that the Tab key close the menu and move focus to the next or previous element in the tab order. As a result, keyboard navigation through menus was less predictable for users who rely on the keyboard or assistive technologies.
In TinyMCE 8.7.0, pressing Tab or Shift+Tab on an open menu now closes the menu and moves focus to the next or previous focusable element in the tab order. This makes keyboard navigation more predictable and aligns dropdown menu behavior with accessibility guidelines.
