Probably shouldn't fix this until we rewrite the Widgets palette.

* Drag/drop a Calendar
* Click on Button to select
* use arrow keys to move selection in Widgets palette to ComboBox, then press Return key
* Click on canvas

Result=> You get a Calendar instead of a ComboBox

Actually, much more is wrong with the above steps beyond just picking the wrong widget. One of the big reasons for keyboard support is accessibility, and there is much more broken from an accessibility perspective. Best to deal with all of this at once as part of a rewrite of the Widgets palette, where we design accessibility in from day one.
