Research direction

Start by reviewing dependency #129 and the existing combobox examples and developer-guide structure. Done means adding guidance and an example for grouped options that preserves UP/DOWN arrow-key navigation and prepares the stated autocomplete direction.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Dependency: #129

This is a preparatory step before we can get to an autocomplete combobox with columns of options (all still navigated with UP/DOWN arrow keys).
