Description Tin Man 2013-09-18 20:19:21 UTC

The target area for opening the drop-down list of a combo box is unnecessarily small compared to the width of the entire box, especially when the text field portion of the box is less likely to be used than the drop-down list portion.

My suggestion is to increase the target area to the whole combo box.
When clicking on any part of the combo box, the drop-down list should open, the cursor should become focused inside the text field, and the text inside the field should be selected.

Forgot that I reported this bug (couldn't find it using Bugzilla search, when looking through my own reports, I accidentally kept the default status filters, which excludes Unconfirmed).
