Filter large form selects
v0.5.0.4 - Adds a filtering tool to large select fields
Adds a filter input field to large select fields.
0.5:
- Improved, I think even perfect, positioning.
- The select element is no longer sized or moved. An new select element is inserted to display filter results.
- It no longer breaks selects with optgroups.
- Esc key now closes the filter.
- You can select a result using the mouse now.
- You no longer need to tab twice to focus the next form field.
- The select onchange function will be executed when the select was changed by the filter (this was broken since Greasemonkey 0.6.4).

Wow, this script is just plain great. It's so useful for sifting through very wordy and long forms.

The select filter no longer breaks optgroups.

You're right.. optgroups is something that needs attention in the next version. (Same goes for the other todo's mentioned in the source).

I noticed <optgroups> are all placed at the top of the list, maybe you can circumvent these to stay in place?
