If pressing enter automatically performs the first item in the list then why would you need to key down to it? It just makes it harder to get to the second item. Consider jumping straight to second item in list upon pressing the down key?

don't forget you can launch any item by hitting alt+# key (or just digit key depending on your configuration).
