Bug #2 from bug 1249664.

STR:
1) Open the testcase
2) Browse the dropdown list of the <select>
3) Without clicking on option, move the mouse outside the dropdown

Result: highlighted option is selected and dropdown disappears.
Also looks like a regression from 44. Tracking for 46+. 

Is this also only a problem if e10s is disabled?
jet, can you help find an owner for this recent regression? Thanks.

Appears to be regressed by the fix for bug Bug 506815. I've asked for a backout:

It's not a recent regression, the bug is here for ages. I tested with FF4 and FF8 and the bug is present.

On the other hand, bug 1249664 is a recent regression.
I see. This bug is also fixed in e10s builds. Marking dependency.
Depends on: e10s
The underlying issue is that the :hover rule makes us destroy the current CSS box
for the element and create a new box of a different type (aka reframing).  We have
never supported keeping the dropdown menu open across reframing.

Untracking for 46/47, since this  isn't actually a recent regression. Sounds promising too that e10s fixes the issue!  Thanks for investigating loic, mats, and jet!
