Steps to reproduce:
I move the mouse towards the down-pointing arrow to change the type of recipient.
Actual results:
When the cursor reaches this area, the down-pointing arrow is replaced by a cross icon to remove the recipient.
Expected results:
The cross shouldn't appear in place of the arrow when it is hovered by the mouse. This creates a 99.99% chance that one will accidentally delete the recipient when trying to change recipient type.
I understand that one doesn't actually need to click the arrow itself to open the drop-down menu... so maybe it is simple to just move the arrow to the right side to avoid this... or just keep the cross visible at all time (there's plenty of space for it, I couldn't think of a single justification of why the cross should be hidden).
