There are clearly editable comboboxes, right? Like the one currently
used for zooming - you can click and enter a value... See screenshot
for such one on the left, compared to a normal one on the right.

Hans' work could be changed to show the editable combobox on mouseover
already, instead of only when you click as in his mockup:

Wouldn't that be the perfect widget?

I don't really get how your proposal would look from the email you
send, a more clear mockup like hans' would be cool, btw...
