Combobox height

[galcott]

When using the combobox I noticed that the dropdown panel was usually much too big, even when there were only 2 or 3 choices. It took me quite a long time to figure out that this is controlled by panelHeight which defaults to 200. This needs to be set to 'auto'. Why isn't that the default? It makes no sense to have an arbitrary fixed height when there can be any number of items in the list.

You can set the 'panelHeight' property to 'auto'.

Code:

$('#cc').combobox({
  panelHeight: 'auto'
});

Yes, as I said I figured that out. But why isn't auto the default?
