This is an edge case but we already have some positioning magic on mobile which should be extended to Desktop as well.

This is particularly annoying on iPad as well where you will run into it a lot. Mobile too, to some extent.. can you add this to your list @tgxworld? I think the drop-down should open down (vs. up) when it is close “enough” to the top of the viewport..
