On forms where auto-complete appears for text elements, if you try to click on a
SELECT element, the auto-complete will not go away and holds the mouse focus. If
you click anywhere else the auto-complete list will go away and relase the mouse
focus.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fill out form with a text element and a select element and submit the form.
2. Return to the form and start filling out first text element so the
auto-complete tip appears.
3. With the auto-complete tip visible, click on the select box.

Actual Results:  
Auto complete suggestions will not go away.

Expected Results:  
Auto complete suggestions should go away.

Mass edit: Setting correct QA for location bar/autocomplete. My bad. I forgot I had once been Autocomplete QA too. Hmm, why can't I just set the QA of bugs to the default QA of the component in a mass edit rather than having to do it manually...?
