Looked into it, have a patch pending. The good news is, its easy to work 
around by simply making your browser wider until it decides to change the 
layout. For some reason it decided the height of the container of the field 
was double what it was supposed to be and thus the field (in this case a drop 
down) was on top of the check box and eating the click.
