I think it would be kinda surprising to render a <select multiple> as a
series of checkboxes: You expect a <select> to be kinda small even if
the number of possible choices is large.
I wondered how Chromium rendered those, and it's:
(Multiple to the left and singular to the right.)
So it's a widget that's about four lines high and with a scroll bar for
further entries...
Well, I didn't know about popup-menu -- does Emacs have support for this
kind of thing, too? :-)
