I use the DBLookupComboBox without DataSource always in the past 10-20 
years with Lazarus and Delphi.

 From the TDBLookupComboBox's wiki page:

"Unbound use - You can get the combobox to look up values from one table 
without storing the results in another by leaving the DataSource and the 
KeyField properties empty."

 From my POV, unacceptable if a fix broke a feature in a fixes_* branch 
after x.y.0 version released from it.
