This is going to work in my case. No guarantees it will work for anyone else, and I take no responsibility if you try it 
Change to ext-all-debug.js (2.0alpha1) at line 26673. The combobox onLoad..
PHP Code:
onLoad : function(){
if(!this.hasFocus){
return;
}
if(this.store.getCount() > 0){
this.expand();
this.restrictHeight();
if(this.lastQuery == this.allQuery){
if(this.editable){
this.el.dom.select();
}
if(!this.selectByValue(this.value, true)){
this.select(0, true);
}
}else{
this.selectNext();
if(this.typeAhead && this.lastKey != Ext.EventObject.BACKSPACE && this.lastKey != Ext.EventObject.DELETE){
this.taTask.delay(this.typeAheadDelay);
}
}
}else{
this.onEmptyResults();
}
},
The change..
PHP Code:
if(!this.selectByValue(this.value, true)){
to
PHP Code:
if(!this.selectByValue(this.allQuery, true)){
This is going to work for me because I set to allQuery='' (which is also the default). Let's step through..
Delete the input text, and now this.lastQuery == this.allQuery. The blank text never makes it into this.value -- it remains the same as the last one you selected.
Since this is case, I think it makes more sense to call this.SelectByValue() with the allQuery value. And guess what! I just so happen to have a blank value to my datastore so now it gets selected.
I'm struggling to figure out why you would want to pass this.value even if allQuery was not blank, but then I do have a hard time thinking like other people.
Say you have allQuery = 'all' then they type 'all' in the input. I'd think you'd first want to check to see if 'all' is also a valid value in your list, then if not select the first in the list rather than looking up the previously selected value.
