Comment(by cmbarton):

 The bug I reported has indeed been fixed. Thanks much. I'm not sure
 whether we want to keep this open as an enhancement request or not.
 Testing on GRASS 7 (svn trunk updated 2 January 2011), the drop down
 search feature works as follows on my Mac.

 Click to display map list -> all maps are displayed and user can select
 any map

 Type something while map list is displayed -> nothing happens

 Type something while map list is closed, then click to display map list ->
 all maps are displayed and the selection indicator is located on a map
 that begins with the same characters as those typed (if such a map
 exists).

 So AFAICT, there is no filtering, but there is an easy (if not obvious)
 way to quickly move the selection cursor to a desired map in a long list.

 Is this behaving the way it is supposed to behave?
