Attachment: Dropdown arrow compresses Screenshot

The dropdown arrow icon will continue to compress in size as the font increases.

Repro:
1. Load Firefod 2.0.0.8
2. Find a page that has lots of dropdowns  (eg. bugzilla form)
3. Command + + ... 
4. Verify the arrow icon next to a dropdown box begins to compress.

** Screenshot attached.   
** This doesnt repro on minefield on 10.5, nor 2.0.0.8 on mac tiger.

This has got to be INVALID, as the arrow is an image whose size is fixed; it's never scaled up nor down.

Moreover, that screenshot looks exactly like what I see with 2.0.0.8 on 10.3 when I jack the font size up.  The arrow "compressing" in size is just an optical illusion where it remains the same size as the click widget border gets larger and larger.

You're right , it's more of an illusion than an incorrect compression.  closing the issue.
