Description

See this example from the "File and directory basics" technique:

!Screen Shot 2017-03-07 at 10.56.49.png!

The list of options in the drop down component contains several that are much longer that the width of the dropdown. This makes it hard to figure out what options are selected.

The width of the dropdown component should be proportional to the longest option in it.

This is the same since 3.1, but if the fix is too complex, we shouldn't risk stability in 3.1 and 4.0, and only change it in 4.1.
