Enhancement suggestion: Change parameter list from a combo box to a list view

This is something I thought of while bouncing between the 2 operating systems more. The current setup works OK, but I think this would considerably improve efficiency, especially on Mac but also on Windows to an extent.

Pop-up buttons on Mac work quite differently to Windows combo boxes. The main difference is that, on Windows, pressing the arrow keys while on a combo box changes the selection even though the list doesn't open visually. On Mac, this isn't the case. Your first press of either arrow key first causes the menu of selections to appear, and only subsequent arrow presses move through the choices. Something else to note here is that while the menu is open, you can't tab, so you have to press enter on a parameter before you can tab to its value slider.

On Windows, the benefit though less pronounced, would be that unlike a combo box, a list view lets you do searches for more than the first letter of an item, which ironically can be done in a Mac popup menu even now. The filter box does kind of fill this role, but that ends up taking more keystrokes to focus it, do a search and then return to the list which isn't as practical if you want to adjust just one or two parameters.

I think this would be very useful, and something I thought of suggesting myself seeing as the preset dialog uses the listview. +1
