I'm updating the value of enterKeyHint dynamically in an autocomplete library. When there's a active item, the Enter key should use "go" (to hint that hitting Enter navigates to the item's link) and when there isn't (no query, no results), the Enter key should use "search".

This DOM updates works fine on most mobile browsers, except on Chrome Android. When the update happens, the input value is cleared.

I've reproduced the issue in isolation. The update kicks in at 5 characters.

Here are quick previews on a Galaxy S9:

With Firefox Android, the Enter key's label updates as expected and the input value doesn't change.

With Chrome Android, the Enter key updates but the input value is reset (causing new updates to the Enter key, etc.)

I'm suspecting an inconsistency between how mobile browsers implement the spec, since everything works as expected on Safari iOS, Chrome iOS and Firefox Android. However, I couldn't find anything online, it doesn't seem like this behavior has been reported before (I assume updating this propery isn't too commonplace).

Has anyone ever faced this issue, or understands it? Thanks in advance!
