Bug Description

When selecting a wireless network name in the network settings app (System Settings -> Network), under Network Name you can see the name of the currently associated network, with the ability to cause the drop down list to expand by selecting the down arrow at the far right hand edge of the box.

I shouldn't have to navigate to that far right edge to select the small that is the down arrow in order to bring up the list, I should be able to select anywhere along the length of the box containing the Network Name.
When hovering over the network name, the mouse pointer takes on a text entry style, yet this is not a text entry box; selecting the network name does nothing.

Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10
