My oldest barcode reader here (PS/2 type) sends enter after a barcode
and it's not programmable.  It would be very good to have barcode as
the last field whenever possible and things like submitting a form
with too few barcodes to simply redisplay the form, but I think/hope
these old barcode readers are dying out in favour of USB HID ones, so
maybe it's a niche requirement.

Hope that helps,
