I can reproduce this, though it's still possible to change the values with the arrow keys, so I'd call it a P3.

Apparently this is not a regression?

Hi,
I've tested this using the latest Nightly version 74.0a1 (2020-01-13) (64-bit) for Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and I’m able to reproduce the issue. Based on this I will mark firefox74 flag as affected.
Best,

This issue is reproducible on latest Nightly 78.0a1 Build ID 20200511094328 on MacOS 10.14. Changed flags accordingly.

Severity: normal → S3

This issue is still reproducible on latest Nightly 79.0a1 (2020-06-24).

I've talked to :gijs about this. The proper (platform default) way to open these dropdowns on Windows/Linux is Alt+DownArrow. So we don't need support spacebar/enter here.
