+          This was preventing turbolinks to make the request to the link clicked
+          Vue will always look at the VDOM element which is the button
+
+          It has a special attribute 'aria-describedby' which will not exist:
+            - once the build link is clicked
+            - when someone clicks outside of the dropdown
+
+          In order for this to work:
+            - here we setTimeout to give enough time to initialize the request
+            - but short enough that a subsequent click will reset that state
