[TYPO3-core] RFC #7123: Bug: select wizard doesn't work in Safari

[Ismaël Bidau]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=7123

Branches:
TYPO3_4-1, TYPO3_4-2 and trunk

Problem:
It's "select wizard" related in Webkit based browsers : When you do a 
choice in the select box, the value is transfered to the input text but 
the value is lost when you click anywhere on the page.

The problem is Safari fire onchange event anytime the selection changes
after being focused. So when you change the selectedIndex from within
the onchange handler, it will have focus and hence fire again.

Solution:
To workaround the problem, you can tell the dropdown to blur itself
before changing the index. This will prevent it from firing the onchange
again.

Notes:
Thank you Benni for your help. Hope this RFC is better now :)
