This isn't a complaint but an invitation to brainstorm.  How can we do this better?

After 18 months on 3.4, a recent upgrade to 4.2 reveals a mass conversion/creation of no less than 172 price sets in this instance.   This site gets what I would describe as "moderate" use: 5 contribution pages and a few dozen events over the last 18 months.  They're fond of early bird discounts.

This seems neither here nor there, except when applying a discount to an event using the CiviDiscount module.  In 4.2 I need to apply the discount to both the event AND price set(s) in use.   It's annoying and difficult.   I think we can do this better.

Ideas:

1) increase the size of the multi-selects, as you see here in this screenshot

2) do not show price sets used only with: past events, inactive events, or inactive contribution pages

3) other ideas?

Thanks yo.

Thanks Tim, that's a good band aid.  But all price sets, even price sets that are disabled, show up in that list.   I'll file an issue.
