It's not the best solution ever, but you might look into raw_id_fields to solve the dropdown issues.

Yeah this is the best native workaround I'm aware of.

Is it really a workaround, if it's already baked in as a feature though?

Yes, in 2017 it's a workaround. The 2010-onwards way to solve this problem is with a client-side filter in the select input, so that you don't need to open a new window.
