Most modern Design Tools seem to have the concept of exiting the focus edit state when a user presses the Enter Key. We do not in our current QtDS controls implementation and in standard Quick Controls or Widgets.

We should review if this is now a standard behavior we should adopt and aim for company wide consistency with.

So far i have tested and confirmed this is standard for the following tools, if we can find counter examples (not built with qt) that would be good.

We would also need to consider how this affects controls in dialogs where enter is often used to confirm the dialog process is complete.
