I know no one asked for my opinion, but I've never been a fan of trying to
recreate the select box just for "design" reasons. There's certain things
that a select box does that can't be re-created using DOM elements (such as
expanding outside the browser window.) Plus, I've yet to see one that
behaves like a real select box (being able to tab to the element, emulating
exact keyboard operations, etc.)

Ooh sorry, one more.

It would be awesome to have a plugin that could transform a regular
<Select><option> structure into something that you could use CSS on.

Maybe even supporting <optgroup>.  So the backend people still get their
Select box, but the front end is reconfigured to be much more flexible.

Select boxes are a visual designers nightmare.

 

Like the checkbox plugin http://kawika.org/jquery/checkbox/ but for selects.
