ok, just played with it some more.  it only happes when the drop down only
contains search.  if it has more things, it seems to be ok.  i can't completely
tell, but it may actually be that for one update, the text ment for the url bar
just get's over written into the dropdown, as it can sometimes fix itself up
with an update (mouse over the serch entry and then back up to the url bar)

i see this too.

the interesting thing to note is that the mach-o build still has the outliner
column headers in the dropdown, while the cfm build does not. hewitt, you gave
me a patch for cfm and it worked. i wonder why we still get them in mach-o. that
could be why the first line is confused, it's being pushed down by the column
headers.

anyone have ideas?

I think pink was right on, it only shows up where there is one auto complete,
and the header seems to takes up the space so the two get overwritten.	if the
autocomplete has a full 5+, there isn't a problem.  when it's in this screwed
up mode, you can confirm it has two entries by using the up/down arrows on the
keyboard to walk it.

It took a while to find an autocomplete with only one item, and I turned on show
search. It displays in its own little rectangle.
