This is rather more tricky than what we did for TCustomEdit.
Mind you that Delphi has it easy,it simply calls some Windows API to
get this done, but we need to implement this cross-platform (hence we
override RealSetText and RealGetText).
Setting Text in a ComboBox may have other side effects then in a TCustomEdit.
