I have about a hundred milestones in my projects, and counting. We have one per Agile release and we've been around a bit.
I don't want to delete the old ones as they have data in them. I don't want to have to scroll down the drop down for 100 plus items every time I assign a defect to a build.
How about sorting those milestones by reverse date order, or reverse numeric (ours are numeric, although they're strings like "1.102" of course). That way, I don't care how long the list is, so long as the latest milestones are at the top of it.
Just a suggestion
Comments: Have you been setting your milestones as completed? This removes it from the new issue page. Also, you can control the order in which they appear on an existing issue milestone drop down box via the milestone project admin.
