Enter text immediately into box for autocomplete

Question

I have a formset with django-autocomplete-light on the full_name field. I want to be able to TAB into the box and type. Currently, however, if I tab into the box, I can't type, it's like a ChoiceField, but if I click on it (or spacebar) it opens up the dropdown menu and I can type into the area below the menu I clicked on, as though I was typing in the first choice option.
