Basically it will replace the long list of components when you go to enter a new bug with a ajaxy input field where you type in the component name and it shows you a list of matches.
This reduces load on the bugzilla servers a good deal and makes the page load a lot faster. However, it might be that it doesn't work so well in some browsers or has other issues. (There's a test instance listed in the bug if you would care to test).
The test link doesn't work.
Hopefully you'll at least be able to enter a component somehow without having javascript available.
