Allow typeahead text to be automatically cleared when an item is selected, else manually cleared via API?

[andrew-pane]

When typeahead text is entered by the user, is there a way to clear out their text when they choose an item from the list, either automatically or via an API call?

For example, I type "Andrew" and pick my name from the list, but "Andrew" still hangs around in the input text unless I tab away from the dialog and come back. I would like to clear that text as soon as the user selects an item from the list.

As a workaround, I tried adding a ValueChangeListener that would clear the ComboBox and then re-select the chosen values, but I only seem to be able to be able to clear/reset the selected values, but the user text hangs around. In the end I've managed to get this working by recycling the entire MultiselectComboBox object with a new instance and then populating it with the values from the first instance, but this seems clumsy and causes some flicker on screen.

(BTW, great component!)
