Bug Description
Bootstrap has a class called form-select that provides a nice down arrow so that you can tell that the field is a dropdown. It does this using a background SVG image.
However, bug 2080884 overrode the form-select class background in the staff client to be just a plain solid background -- no down arrow. As a result, dropdowns in many screens no longer have down arrows and don't really look like dropdowns anymore. For example:
* Search > Search the Catalog > Sort Results dropdown
* Cataloging > MARC Batch Import/Export > Export tab > Record Type, Format, and Encoding dropdowns
* Administration > Local Administration > Library Settings Editor > Edit any boolean setting > The True/False dropdown
* Dropdowns throughout the acquisitions interfaces
* Several other places, you can search the code for form-select
I have a branch in progress that addresses several issues with form styles, including this one.
