--- Comment #12 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Usually dropdown control with fixed content (eg. line styles, alignment options
etc) open on click while editable dropdowns (I know those as "combobox") don't.
What commenters call annoying is the additional action from the UI, which is
not necessary if the user actually enters something. It draws attention and
takes time, even when only a few milliseconds. The only use case for opening
the list is when you don't know the content and want to get an overview; and
this is achieved by the expander button.

It would be nice, however, if the available options are listed on typing. Like
"Head" and it shows H1-H9. But that's off topic here.
