GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 135543
combobox list mode doesn't support scrolling

of the popup window, which is a regression against gtkcombo....
Positioning is now more or less done; the list popup is pushed horizontally into the screen.
Whats still missing in terms of positioning is to move the list popup above the entry/cellview if there is too little space below.
Positioning is done now.
Is anything happening with this one? It makes the appear-as-list mode completely useless when there's more items than will fit between the widget and the top/bottom of the screen. Combine that with the hopelessness of the menu mode when there's more items than will fit on the screen at once, and you're left with a crippled widget that is a huge usability regression from GtkCombo.
Mass changing gtk+ bugs with target milestone of 2.4.2 to target 2.4.4, as Matthias said he was trying to do himself on IRC and was asking for help with. If you see this message, it means I was successful at fixing the borken-ness in bugzilla :) Sorry for the spam; just query on this message and delete all emails you get with this message, since there will probably be a lot.
