Combobox only resets on blur when context is open

[DavidBrieden]

Describe the bug
Usually when you search in a Combobox and hit escape or just unfocus the field the input value gets reset. This works if the combobox is open, but when you search for something that isn't an option this behavior changes, and the input does not get reset.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Goto https://kobalte.dev/docs/core/components/combobox#example
• if you search for "Ban" the list will show the option "Banana", and after a blur (or pressing escape) the input gets deleted.
• if you search for "Ban3" the list will close, and after a blur (or pressing escape) nothing happens.

Expected behavior
I expected that even if no option was found, the value would reset. Or is this intentional behavior and not a bug?

Screenshots
I've added a short video.

Hey! Thanks for contributing.

The behaviour is accurate by the WAI-ARIA spec https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/combobox/

The behaviour you're describing is achievable, but it is not the expected default behaviour.

I cannot recall if there is a prop for this. I will let you know when I am at the computer later.

Thanks for the quick reply! I almost thought that this behavior might be intentional. The only prop I found for this is noResetInputOnBlur, which completely disables the reset.

I only checked how React Aria does this, here it is how I expected it.
