That's not fair; I would not be speaking English to my mom, so I wouldn't use the word 'pulldown' in this context either ;) She seems to prefer 'roltapijtje' (rolling carpet). Go figure. When using it, you aren't really pulling it down, either. You click a button, a list drops down. I propose <rollingcarpet/>. Should be obvious to anyone. Emile, who doesn't really mind pulldown.
