FilteringSelect and thus ComboBox don't do anything with the callback on loadDropDown

[symphony]

the source code for the ComboBox? widget, inherited by the FilteringSelect? widget, has a bug in that although it provides a parameter to accept a callback function, it doesn't do anything with it, this is contrary to the documentation and other loadDropDown functions elsewhere in the code.

Whomever has written it has tried to override dijit._HasDropDown.loadDropDown but has simply discarded the callback functionality.

source: ​http://bugs.dojotoolkit.org/browser/tags/release-1.6.1/dijit/form/ComboBox.js

function:

loadDropDown: function(/*Function*/ callback){

this._startSearchAll();

}

Please describe how this is adversely affecting a web page. _HasDropDown sends openDropDown as the callback function, and ComboBox/FilteringSelect? calls this callback method manually after the results come back (asynchronously) from the data store.
