Render select elements in various different modes on mobile and desktop: <select multiple> <select multiple size=1> <select size=4> Actual results: Mobile always has a picker, and desktop always has a listbox Expected results: Mobile and desktop should have the same rendering mode for the same select element. Mobile should have a listbox when size=4 or multiple with no size attribute, and desktop should have a picker with multiple size=1, although the spec allows for multiple size=1 with appearance:auto to still be a listbox since macos appkit doesn't have a multi-select dropdown picker yet. Here is an HTML issue and spec PR: https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/11460 https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/8189
