Sometimes, when filter I'm editing already has several entries, if I press
'More', and try to change the field name by clicking the drop-down list, the
list appears not in its place - below the rectangle of the current selection -
but rather with its top in the middle of the task bar.

Screenshot to be attached soon.

This is probably a dupe, I just couldn't find what of.

Reproducible: Sometimes

I don´t know if that one was related, but you are using an old build, and an
extension, may be you should update?

Bug 256505 context menu for object in scrollbox cut off by bottom of screen
(e.g. Chatzilla bottom tabs)

no, using nightly from a couple of days ago. Bug has been occuring for a long
time, though.

No extension that affects that dialog. Using BiDi Mail UI (only affects messages
themselves), AdBlock and Extension Uninstaller.

The thing is that the drop-down list should not even be close to the bottom of
the screen...

sorry for the spam.  making bugzilla reflect reality as I'm not working on these bugs.  filter on FOOBARCHEESE to remove these in bulk.
