Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When the dropdown component filters character by character instead of filtering the entire word, this makes the search less efficient and more time-consuming. It also becomes confusing as it shows data that doesn't make sense just because the letters exist.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like the dropdown component to filter the entire word, similar to how the combobox functions. This would make the user experience more intuitive and faster.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I considered replacing the dropdown component with a combobox, but it freezes with more than 4500 data entries, which is the current amount we have.

Additional context

Currently, when typing in a dropdown field, the filtering occurs character by character, which can result in a long list of irrelevant options. If the dropdown filtered the entire word, like the combobox, it would significantly improve usability.
