    <p>

        An NSComboBox is what we can call a completion/choices box,
        derived from NSTextField, it allows you to enter text
        like in a text field but also to click in the ellipsis
        button (indicating the fact other user inputs are
        possible) on the right of it to obtain a list of
        choices, you can use them as the text field value by
        selecting a row in this list. You can also obtain
        direct completion when it is enabled via
        <code>setCompletes:</code> to get a suggested text field
        value updated as you type.
          </p>
    <p>

        Like other NSControl classes, NSComboBox is a wrapper
        around a core piece which implements the combo box
        behavior, a cell, which is in this case an
        NSComboBoxCell.
