Description Elliott Sprehn 2007-05-24 15:35:45 PDT 
Padding is not honored on the new non-aqua <select> widget.

Reproducible in the latest nightly. (Thu May 24 0:06:11 GMT 2007, r21682).

Workaround

Having revisited this bug tonight (because of the downstream comment email) a workaround occurred to me by making webkit style the control as a button and faking the non-aqua select box style. This turns out to work surprisingly well.

There's two issues with the workaround:
1. Open handle icon and divider don't respect font size
2. Open handle icon doesn't respect font color

The second issue is fixable by using a different background image. I can't think of any way around the first.

I assume this is a PLATFORM(MAC) only bug?  Its up to the RenderTheme as to if it wants to honor padding, correct?

This is certainly true on Safari, but might be by design to follow HI guidelines.
