/*
	This is the method you need to override in your subclass of NSComboBoxCell so that autocompletion will be done case-insensitively.    To force your subclass to be instantiated for all combo boxes in  your application, you can use class posing like this at startup of your application:
	
	[[MyComboBoxCell class] poseAsClass:[NSComboBoxCell class]];
