> Proposal to add the following API to TextInput:
> public List<String> getSuggestions();
> public void setSuggestions(List<String> suggestions);
> When the suggestions list was non-null, the text input skin would be responsible for showing the suggestions to the user.  The default skin would display a popup underneath the text input, with a list view of the suggestions in the popup.  The user could then use the down arrow and tab or click to select a suggestion, thus populating the text of the text input.
> It would always be left up to the application to manage the suggestions list (update it, set it, or clear it) based on application-level logic -- the skin would always present the suggestion list if it were there.
> Applications could combine this feature with the Java preferences API to store historical form data and provide behavior akin to browser form behavior.
