**Repro:**
1. Go to profile preferences, open a dropdown
2. Go back or forwards in your browser (clicking away doesn’t have such an effect)
You can reload the page again to get rid of it.

Weird Ember bug @eviltrout worth a look, was able to easily repro on chrome.

Thanks for letting me know! The code that was tearing down `select2` did it in a really weird way. It’s fixed in this commit:
