Alt+Enter from Suggestions/History in address bar does nothing

I'm currently using Opera 107.0.5045.21 under Mint 20.2 Cinnamon 5.0.7.
- Launch Opera; disable extensions (including ad-blocker)
- Open a new tab
- Click on the address bar
- Type some characters so Suggestions and History appear
- Press ↓ (down arrow) a couple of times to select one of the URLs
- Press Alt+Enter
Expected behaviour: The selected entry opens in a new tab, like in other browsers, and like if the user had typed something without selecting from the Suggestions/History
Actual behaviour: Nothing happens

Has anybody looked at this? Is there a way I can bump it? While Opera is now my preferred browser, this issue is the main thing that makes me say 'it's really good, but it's got a few really annoying bugs', because I trip up on it every day.
I haven't found a current Opera repo in GitHub. If somebody can point me to it, I could have a go at fixing this myself?

@leocg I'm afraid I don't know if it ever worked in Opera. It's worked in Firefox and Chrome, as long as I've used those browsers, and it works in Opera if I alter an existing URL and that ends up in Suggestions. But I've never seen it work for History, so it's inconsistent, and therefore reasonable to consider a bug.
I'll look for that tool. Cheers.

@leocg Can you point me to the page with the email address for Report a problem for Linux? My websearching has brought me to that page for the Touch version, and the iOS version, but I haven't found it for the version I'm using. Even when I replace
ios
in the URL withlinux
, it forwards to the Touch version. But I'm using the desktop version.Thanks.
