Resizing an autocomplete textbox after the popup has shown causes the popup element to take up space / take over the textbox.

Note that this not that same as Bug 78508 (“New autocomplete widget cannot be resized”).  

This is easily fixed by removing the width attribute when the popup closes.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
* Put a label, a splitter, and an autocomplete textbox into a chrome window (test case to follow)
* Type in the autocomplete textbox until the popup appears
* Click to close the popup
* Type some more to confirm that the textbox still works
* Use the splitter to make the autocomplete textbox smaller
* Note that a big invisible box has appeared and is now taking up most of the internal textbox area
* DomInspect to confirm that the mysterious box is actually the hidden autocomplete popup
