Meteor and saving dropdown states

I have two collections 'Buckets' and 'Values' with two templates Bucket and Value, 'Bucket' renders a sub template 'Value'. Value is being updated every second by the server. The Bucket template has two dropdowns which I'm keeping state in the corresponding Bucket model.

The problem I have is in firefox everytime I change a dropdown it saves the state but doesn't reflect the change in the template it instead goes to the last item in the dropdown list. If I refresh the state is reflected correctly.

I can fix it by creating a third collection called 'states' and save the dropdown states there with a corresponding reference back to the Bucket but would be nice not to have to do this.

Any ideas would be great.

Dropdowns are among the input elements that don't work quite right on 0.5.2. There is currently a fix for this on the devel branch; you can either hang tight for a release, take your chances living on the edge, or find a workaround like putting your input element in a {{#constant}}{{/constant}} region.
