I don't think it makes sense in a combo box. The point of the combo box
is to have a single value, with an easy-to-access list from which the
value can be chosen.

If you want something like a combo box but which supports multi-select
(for example, like the File Open dialog, where you can multi-select and
that builds a string combining all of the items you've selected), I think
you have to implement that yourself. I'm not aware of any built-in
control that does that in a general-purpose way.
