Comment (by mwortmann):

 I agree that in the map display toolbox the combo box is a bit awkward,
 but I think for a potentially long list of mapsets this would be the most
 convenient way to change them. Putting a mapset changer a bit more
 prominent into the gui would also help newbies come to terms with the
 mapset idea and give them an incentive to use them. I know far too many
 people starting with grass that just dump all their maps into PERMANENT.

 Re displaying the current mapset: The Map Display title doesnt update when
 you actually change the mapset, which makes it more confusing than helpful
 sometimes. I tweak my commandline prompter in my .grass.bashrc two have a
 constant reminder of where I am, which also updates. But there is nothing
 like that in the gui.
