I see this Bug INVALID.
With "LibreOffice 3.3.0Beta3 - WIN XP DE [OOO330m12 (build 3.2.99.3)]" the
mouse scroll direction for character size is the same as anywhere else:
The same scroll wheel moving that brings me to the bottom of the last page of a
document  will bring me to the bottom of the combo box list. So scroll
direction is correct, any change would seem unintuitive to me.

So might remain that the order of the character sizes should be contrary,
maximum size at the top of the list, minimum at the bottom. That can be
discussed, but although the result would match with spin button mouse scroll
behaviour ((page-up- moving of mouse will increase numerical value in spin box)
I doubt that that will be intuitive for most of users.

I dislike spin buttons, but that's my personal opinion.

Currently I only see a very small importance for changes here

@Andrew:
intuitions of different users are different, as we here see again. Any Idea how
to satisfy also your, mine ant other one needs in time (with acceptable
efforts)?
