Hmmmm! But I can not use the key shortcut #L to "launch" the combox (try!) 
and then use the arrow keys to scroll through it. I can do this with the 
current set up. 

This isn't to say that the current set up is better, (clearly it isn't), but 
combox should be extended so that the user can use shortcuts to navigate it. 

Thanks for the info.
