SuggestBox doesn't work with Editor Framework (well not like ValueListBox does)

[Elhanan]

hi..

in my attempt to provide a selection option, in a editor that has  RequestFactory Driver, i discovered i cannot use suggest Box to accept an bean, like i would with a ValueListBox (which is not even included in gwt designer's pallete) , while valueListBox has a generic defintion (for example ValueListBox<DepartmentProxy>) SuggestBox is confined to a String, which means, SuggestionBox can never be used with anything more then a string Value (not even enumerated look up table. which i think severely limits it's options.

Is there anything that 's preventing you from creating a ValueListBox<DepartmentProxy>)??

yes, it's called "too-much-values-to-be-displayed-in-one-list"...

and btw here's what i thought of...

it's still in the rough, but basically it's a combination between ValueListBox and SuggestionBox 

(hence ValueSuggestionBox :) ), i've tried in my small sourceforge project and seems to be working (at least with requestFactory EntityProxies), so now i can use an entire bean property on this thing..

think it's worth opening an issue of this?
