I think you're correct that this is the right place. Conceptually the UA gets a system UI interaction notification, performs hit testing, translates from layout box to node, creates a `MouseEvent`, and then dispatches the event at the located node. Something along this chain stops that from happening for dropdown controls in certain UAs.
