Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm trying to find a way to programmatically expand the result dropdown list

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see a public method that can be called that will focus the input box and expand the dropdown list

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have tried to set focus using JSInterop to see if that would trigger it, with no luck.

Additional context
I have a bootstrap modal that contains the Typeahead control along with Save and Cancel buttons. I'm trying to have the Typeahead control expand when the modal opens.

I think the way we could offer this would be a public method on the component called Focus, for example. You can then get a reference to the component using the @ref directive then just invoke Focus.

A public Focus method would be great. I’d be glad to help however I can. Thanks.
