Ah, but you see, incremental search is available only for popup lists (I'm not sure what the rationale is for that restriction), and you can't roll your own for those, because there's no means to intercept List events...
Popup lists have their own modal event loops, which means they have a handler that can actually accept the keystrokes and do the search. To do automatic incremental search for non-popup lists, the OS would need a mechanism to direct keystrokes to the list control.
