be aware that onChange will fire when you are using the keyboard to
(down,down,down... etc.) to scroll through the values.  It might not
matter if you have only a few option elements and/or you have a very
lightweight event handler - but otherwise you could be causing a bit
of pain for keyboard users (who generally use keyboard to be faster
than mousing)

if/when you get frustrated enough with it, you might end up rolling a
select-replacement :)
