well - I mean anout behaviour not about the look - the look is OK - but
think about a combo-box / or <select> tag in HTML
on Windows and Mac OS also on KDE >> the drop down list come UNDER  the
combobox element not OVER the combo-box as is in modern Gnome apps.

I have an GTK2 theme Redmond which implement the same old and good behaviour
( in fact Firefox dropdown list or on Open Office the same old good UI
behaviour for boxes )

I attached a screenshoot about what I talk using the Redmind theme ( a good
clone win2000 clone ).
