So what is the point? My combobox is csDropDown, otherwise I cannot
enter values other than in the list. Still, the grid does not show
values in the column (its empty) for
(a) any value if I don't have ItemValues
(b) any value not in the list if I have ItemValues
... so I don't see that the combobox ignored ItemValues...
Item values do properly show up when the combobox is active, but only
for the current cell.

Anyway, none of the settings makes the items appear in the grid
always and no matter if in the list or not. Is this a bug?
