Is it possible to virtualize the scrolling in a DropDownList? 

Thanks!

Thank you for the response. I am wondering, given the current functionality of the drop down list what is the recommended method for supporting very large lists? (10,000 or more items).

Hello Matthew,

 
I will suggest you use the combobox widget, as it allows to filter the data. In this case, you can return only first 20 items or so and allow the users to type/filter the data.
