How is this behavior "coherent"?  As has already been noted, it's
inconsistent between drop-down lists and combo boxes.  Also, nothing
indicates to the developer why the data-handling behavior of the
control has changed simply because he chose an "up" or "down" style of
opening.  That's like changing the behavior of a control because you
picked a beveled instead of a flat decorative box around it.

And "modern"?  You're kidding, right?  The transition to OS X was
Apple's chance to modernize many things about its UI, and it chose to
squander that opportunity.
