Yes, the behavior is not because of the fix I made. I was trying to understand the implications of the index based selection approach, and now it looks to be consistent on all the platforms. On Mac, as per your suggestion, we can get the same behavior by removing the "setSelectedItem", but my question is, should I make this change or keep the index based change, since that would keep the implementation also consistent across platforms.

I guess behavior is the same, because of the shared code in Choice->remove->removeNoInvalidate which selects the new element if the old selected element was removed. And it is not affected by the code changed in the fix. -- Best regards, Sergey.
