Select "login".

You can type in your name

and then use the mouse to "click" in the password box

where you can type in your password

and then use the mouse to "click" on the "remember me" box"

and then "login".

It appears that each mouse click performs the "enter" function for the Name and Password entry fields.

Even adding a hyperlink in the advanced input reply window of this forum, gives one an obvious "new mini-window to accept input for a single editable item" and does not require one to press the "enter" key (although it does work).

Maybe it feels wrong to us old DOS users, but to many of the not-so-old Windows folks the "mouse click" seems to be the way it is expected to work.

Perhaps not a "stop the presses" problem, but a valid "glitch" and it is good of David to bring it forward.
