Number text boxes should submit when "E" is pressed!

TL;DR
Number text boxes should submit when "E" is pressed, because using letters in them is useless anyway!
Why?
This is primarily in regards to the signal selection sub-menu: I've gotten used to pressing "E" all around the game to submit menus, and it would be nice to not have to press enter/use the mouse in this instance!
Signal quantities, as far as I know, only accept numeric inputs and a few operator characters. So there's no design reason where pressing "E" while in the text box wouldn't submit it!

“E” in text boxes is interpreted as a
Power of 10; such as 1E6 is calculated at 1,000,000. Other characters like “K” or “M” are also parsed as SI Suffixes, which is both helpful and unhelpful depending on your usage….
I changed the Key binding to Enter. Works great, rarely overlaps with the “Enter/Exit vehicle” function.

Ah, fair enough. Thought about it for a few angles and it should probably stay that way if people actually use that feature.
