Calling setValue() on a combobox with delay loaded data doesn't work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Take a Combobox
2. Load data for that combobox using an RPC call that takes a little while,
say one second
3. After the data is loaded, try calling setValue() on the combobox. The
item you called setValue() with is selected, but you can no longer see any
of the other values in the combobox.

Here is some sample code:

`
final ComboBox myCombo = new ComboBox("Users");

myCombo.setTypeAhead(false);
myCombo.setEditable(false);
myCombo.setMode(ComboBox.LOCAL);
myCombo.setWidth(225);
myCombo.setValueField("value");
myCombo.setDisplayField("name");

final Store userStore = new Store(new ArrayReader(new RecordDef(new FieldDef[]{
   new StringFieldDef("name"),
   new StringFieldDef("value")
})));

userStore.addStoreListener(new StoreListenerAdapter() {
   public void onDataChanged(Store store) {
      myCombo.setValue("0");
   }
});

myCombo.setStore(userStore);

Timer timer = new Timer() {
   public void run() {
      userStore.setDataProxy(new MemoryProxy(new Object[][]{
                 new Object[]{"User 1", "0"},
                 new Object[]{"User 2", "1"},
                 new Object[]{"User 3", "2"},
                 new Object[]{"User 4", "3"},
                 new Object[]{"User 5", "4"},
                 new Object[]{"User 6", "5"}
                }));
                userStore.load();
            }
        };

timer.schedule(1000);

com.gwtext.client.widgets.Panel p = new com.gwtext.client.widgets.Panel();
FormPanel myForm = new FormPanel("MyForm");
myForm.add(myCombo);
p.add(myForm);

RootPanel.get().add(p);
`

The above code will add the users to the box and select "User 1," but then
the combobox cannot be changed. Only "User 1" is shown in the dropdown.
Taking out the setValue in the store listener causes the dropdown to work
correctly, except nothing is selected when the box is first loaded.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect when I click the dropdown button next to the combobox I should see
all my values. Instead, I only see the value that I set with setValue()

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

GWT EXT 2.0.5
GWT 1.5 RC1 or 1.5.2

Try to set combobox's setTriggerAction(ComboBox.ALL) method:

myCombo.setTriggerAction(ComboBox.ALL);
