While I was attaching the testcase for bug 57941 I found a problem with reflowing within comboboxes: Since the animated GIF in the testcase is loaded from an URL, it's not necessarily loaded when you open the combobox. If the image then finishes loading while the combobox is open, the height of the combobox doesn't change, but instead scrollbars appear, covering the width of the combobox before the image appeared. The effect is difficult to explain, but it's very well visible at the URL. If you then close and reopen the combobox, everything appears normally. This was observed on Win98 build 2000101620

I am amazed that the gears show up, which is actually pretty cool. I think the easiest solution is to ignore the reflows while the dropdown is dropped down. But I will look into it sometime.
