Nope, it's there for usability and consistancy reasons. 

There are very few places in KDE in which editable comboboxes that perform an 
action upon a return keypress are not supplanted by some sort of button. Take 
for example, kopete's chat window and virtually any sort of dialogs. 

__However__, I definitely would not bitch or moan if it were removed. Virtually 
all web browser users are used to being able to press enter in location/address 
fields, and if they don't know that yet, they probably will use the menu 
anyways.
