This is very disappointing to hear. Thanks for the response.

I don't know enough about the accessibility APIs to know what kind of bug to file. I'm assuming the browser is sending the wrong information or too much information or something, but is there some way to see exactly what NVDA is being told by the browser? And I'm not sure what the expected behavior would even be. It seems that the concept of a "combo box" hasn't been filled in yet by the w3c "aria practices" authors: https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/31.
