(Keywords: platform-parity) 

build id: 2000021008 (Mac only, can't reproduce on Windows)

Steps to reproduce:
	- Click & hold the mouse button on a Bugzilla menu (e.g. Platform or 
severity)
	- While holding the mouse button down, drag across the menu items

...observe that the selected menu item isn't changing --- it sticks to the 
initially selected item.

Current behavior:

	Select menus within a form on Mac are not supporting the traditional Mac 
menu selection gesture of clicking and holding on the menu, with selection made 
by releasing the mouse button.

Expected behavior:

Currently, we're only supporting the Windows (and Mac OS 8+) gesture of clicking 
on the menu, selecting the desired menu item, and then clicking again to select 
it.

Changing title to make the bug less confusing.
Summary: Mac: Select menus no longer support "click-and-hold" gesture → Mac: HTML Selects no longer support "click-and-hold" gesture
elig, you can click and hold on Win32 too.  Have you tested that to see if it is 
also broken?

Yup. Sorry, by "can't reproduce on Windows", I meant that the "click and hold" 
behavior works correctly on HTML Selects using Win32.

waqar, could you take a look at this, it seems like a regression to me.

Might the regression in 33421 ([REGRESSION]<optgroup> in <select> breaks 
scrolling drop down lists) be related to this bug?
