[TYPO3-core] RFC #16636: Bug: Suggest wizard does not work with drop-down select fields

[François Suter]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=16636

Branches:
4.4, 4.5 and trunk

Problem:
When the suggest wizard is used in conjunction with a size=1 select 
field (i.e. a simple drop-down field), selecting a suggested item does 
not modify the value of the select field.

Solution:
Adapt the relevant JavaScript so that it can work with a simple select 
field too.

Test scenario:
1) install the test extension attached to the bug tracker entry. This 
adds a "Owner" field to the pages table. It appears in the "Extended" 
tab and relates to the be_users table.
2) start typing some user name in the wizard, select one of the 
suggestions => nothing happens
3) apply the patch
4) try step 2 again, it should work.

Notes:
1) The v4.5 version of the patch also applies to trunk.
2) Of course, for trunk, it would be better to clean up the whole JS and 
finally move it to a separate file, but that would be a different RFC.

Cheers
