The `wasted' pixels would be probably used when the letters
inside had accents (for instance).  One may want every combo
box to have a different height depending on the text inside
(e.g. shrinking when it contains only lowercase letters such
as acemnorsuvwxz), but I too would not call that
aesthetically pleasing...
