User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0
Steps to reproduce:
Large enterprise apps use a lot of popup windows (yes, I know it isn't ideal, but it is what it is) These popups are sized to the content they need to display, but a recent change in Firefox has caused <select> list dropdowns to no longer behave like standard dropdowns and extend past the window/viewport boundaries to show content (like they do in every other browser, and every other native app in Windows/whichever OS)
Actual results:
Select list constrained to the popup viewport, becomes visually terrible and a usability mess.
Expected results:
<select> dropdowns should extend beyond the viewport as needed
Attaching a simplified test case shortly to show the bug.

Ugh, I knew I'd moaned about this bug before, but couldn't find the bug report. Thus there is already one reported here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1936615
This is super frustrating that this hasn't been resolved yet.
