Yeah that is what I wanted, but since our Windows counterpart uses

concerned. I save the fights for what really matter.
Hm... Well, it's not unlikely that you could get what you're
looking for by implementing the "-comboBox:completedString:" and /
or "-comboBox:indexOfItemWithStringValue:" data source methods.
Yeah I already tried these, and it does not work correctly, it puts
in the text anyway even if nothing matches.
Windows is moronic in it's use of controls that looks like combo-
boxes where the functionality provided is actually a pop-up button.
You can't tell what type of control it is by looking at it. Only by
attempting to enter some text, you'll notice if it's using combo
box or pop-up button behaviour.
