No, it's not. It's neither a dropdown box nor simple; it's a big scrollable
field with selectable items, with no obvious indicator that you can use Ctrl or
Shift or whatever to select multiple ones unless the user is accustomed with it
already, and even less of an indicator that you can unselect anything at all.

Are we talking about the same thing?...

We clearly aren't. For example, the CC list here is a <select multiple>; all
other dropdown boxes are plain old <select>s.
