Mike,
sure it brings the ComboBox to an more or less inconsistent state, you
can not type in text anymore which is something like an inconsistent
to the description. But thats what we wanted to achieve. ;) So i guess
there should be no other side effects by this change. We just need
that warning to signal that you can not expect the whole widget to
work if you change major stuff on the internal widgets.
Best,
Martin
