dijit.form.FilteringSelect with asterick displayed value

[Josh Trutwin]

Found something interesting today when user reported problem with our app. We have a FilteringSelect? form where they can choose a math operator to apply to an equation (it really does not merit a FilteringSelect?, but we used it to force a required selection). Someone reported that they couldn't select the choice containing * for multiplication. I verified and created a test. When the option with the asterick is selected and the focus is moved outside the select, it goes to unselected. Not a huge priority, but would be nice to have fixed.

FYI - this is against 1.1.1, I haven't tried 1.2RC yet, but will give it a go tomorrow, apologies if this is already fixed.

This deals with * being the wildcard character but I thought we had fixed that (look for the "Special Characters" test in ​http://download.dojotoolkit.org/release-1.2.0rc2/dojo-release-1.2.0rc2/dijit/tests/form/_autoComplete.html?testWidget=dijit.form.FilteringSelect, although that is "3 * 5" not just "*".

This appears to already be fixed in 1.2.
