gdm's DE list doesn't appear to allow scrolling as far back as GNOME 3.10, so if one has many DEs installed, it's impossible to see the entire list. This was reported as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054497 and still exists in GNOME 3.15. Attaching a screenshot.

Is there a solution?

I think it would be simple for the maintainers to enable a scrollbar for a pulldown-menu in the source code.

The patch should be applicable to all versions since 3.12.x, because the problem affects all current fedora versions. This is a very long time without reaction for a simple solvable problem.

This bug report seems to describe the same problem as bug 734352.
