When I'm referring to a drop down I'm talking about a tool bar drop
down.  I'm not speaking about the context sensitive drop down that
suggest all possible choices while you are typing code.  What I'm
talking about is a feature that simple let you go to a particular
already written block of code.  So if you have written multiple
functions in a long script it lets you select any one of those and
jump right to it instead of having to go searching through the code to
find that particular section.
