IMO, no. For user interface reasons, popup buttons are only supposed to
be used when there is a small number of choices. If you have more than
that, you should use an NSTableView or NSBrowser or something similar
(and if you have several hundred items, they should probably be
organized a bit to make it less painful for the user to find things).
