Yes. And please - if you feel like reinventing the dropdown be decent enough to re-implement that feature.
Example of an offender: https://www.google.com/advanced_search
To be fair, that page predates Luke's stint at Google by a long time (I don't know how long has it been since it last received an update, many of Google's features are sadly neglected).
I don't have firefox, unfortunately. Anyways, the feature I'm talking about at least (dunno about my parent) is being able to select an item by typing characters - i.e. typing e-n-g should get you English.
