Assuming the entry field is editable, I think the behaviour should be
that:

- when the focus is in the entry field, Home/End moves the cursor to the
start/end of the entry field

- when the focus is in the dropdown list, Home/End selects the
first/last item in the list (but doesn't close the list).

Cheeri,
