Combo boxes becomes inconvenient when there are lots of records to display. Try to hit search button without entering any search phrase ?
Yes, you are quite right. Feel free to close that issue or cancel it. Your application looks quite good so far. Regards.

Great, if you like it, vote for it on grails central and help spread words about it.
In several places where you want to assign an entity to another, such as in the User Detail view where they can "Add a Group", there is a search bar that allows the user to search for the group they want. That is excellent, but it relies on them knowing what to search for.
It is often a lot easier for the user if you also have a combo-box next to the search field that is pre-populated with all the existing Groups, or Roles or Users, etc... There is plenty of room on the same line as the search widget to place the combo box and then the user can use which ever one is most convenient.
ex: Add Group: -existing Groups in combo box- -search field- -button- -button- [[...Project Coordinators....||.v.]] {(...........................)} [.Search.][..Close..]
