I thought that once approved by clicking ship it it would go through, but then I realized what "ship it" is for, so I was just waiting for someone to push it. So yes, I need someone with a developer account to push it please.

Maybe there is a way to keep the dialog resizable and expand the combobox downwards, but I couldn't find it.
