Clicking on filter dropdown causes a request

Should only request when a selection is made, not before.

Hmm, I'm not sure it actually creates a request. I thought it did when I reported this... but it doesn't reproduce. I do sometimes see a flash like the spinner is being activated. But not consistently. So there's a bug somewhere... 🔍

@magsout are you seeing requests in the Network panel of devtools?

Erm... in Chrome and Safari it won't even open the dropdown at all. I just get the spinner for a split second.

So, I don't exactly understand why, but adding pointer-events: none to .Dropdown-label fixes the issue of not opening in Chrome/Safari. I wonder if it's because we're doing clever things like <button><h1>foo</h1></button>. Not sure.

I'm going to go ahead and deploy that tweak because otherwise dropdowns are just broken for Blink/WebKit browsers. We can figure out the rest of this bug later.

Just noticed that clicking on the "chevron" arrow opens the dropdown in Gecko, but not in Blink/WebKit. To investigate. And now, when I'm on master I get the consistent "open dropdown, get a network request" behavior.
