Chrome v32 drop down bottom item highlight issue

I just upgraded to Chrome v32. (previously had v28) Now the drop downs have a fade-in/fade-out animation but they have a weird issue.

  • If the drop down has more than 4 items, you cannot highlight the bottom item. But you can select it if you click it.
  • If you open-up a drop down whose bottom item is already selected, it opens up with the bottom item highlighted. But as soon as you hover the mouse over other items you can't highlight the bottom item again.

Is anybody seeing this issue? Is there a workaround I can apply to my website css to force chrome use the old drop down logic?

An example of this issue can be seen on chrome's own bug tracker page. Just try the "Search" drop down.
