Select2 if used on popover with mutli=true will close on each removing of tag

Prerequisites

• [x] I have searched for similar issues in both open and closed tickets and cannot find a duplicate.
• [x] The issue still exists against the latest master branch of yii2-editable.
• [x] This is not an usage question. I confirm having gone through and read the documentation and demos.
• [x] This is not a general programming / coding question. (Those should be directed to the webtips Q & A forum).
• [x] I have attempted to find the simplest possible steps to reproduce the issue.
• [x] I have included a failing test as a pull request (Optional).

Steps to reproduce the issue

Do this:

  $data = [
      "19" => "19th",
      "20" => "20th",
      "21" => "21th",
  ];

    echo \kartik\editable\Editable::widget([
        'name' => 'Century2',
        'inputType' => kartik\editable\Editable::INPUT_SELECT2,
        //'asPopover' => false,
        'displayValue' => '20th',
        'value' => ['20'],
        'options' => [
            'id' => 'ids-id-p',
            'data' => $data,
            'pluginOptions' => [
                'placeholder' => '---', //will throw js error on clear-all if not present
                'dropdownParent' => '#ids-id-p-popover',
                'allowClear' => true,
                'multiple' => true,
                'closeOnSelect' => false,
            ],
        ]
    ]);

Then:

• unselect one value (not the clear-all button)

Expected behavior and actual behavior

When I follow those steps, I see the popover closing. It should stay open.

On the otherhand: If you set 'asPopover' => false, then it will work as expected. The form stays open even after removing one item and will only close via the close button or on loosing focus or on clicking outside the form. This is all fine then. But not working if using popover.

There seems to be a similar issue here: https://github.com/kartik-v/yii2-editable/issues/215

But it is marked as "wontfix".

Question to @kartik-v Why will this not be fixed? I just try to understand the issue at hand. Or is this more select2 related than popover-x?

Closing this ticket here as after investigating it, it turns out to be an issue with bootstrap-popover-x.js and not with Editable. I have created a new isssue ticket there to follow-up on this issue:
