I'm actually not sure if this was a design decision or what, but if you notice
with the test case when you navigate through the items using the keyboard the
onChange even doesn't fire (which should change the text below the select) until
you hit enter on the keyboard. It's certainly nothing serious, just something I
noticed which doesn't seem right.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
n/a - see the testcase
Actual Results:  
n/a

Expected Results:  
In my opinion the onChange even should fire when the select form is changed when
using the keyboard witout having to hit enter.

Yes, this is by design
