KMyMoneyCombo is the old editable combobox based on kMyMoneyCompletion
and KMyMoneySelector. KMyMoneyMVCCombo the new combobox using Qt4
completion. It is better because it can be used with a model.
Unfortunately the Qt4 completion mechanism is not sufficiently
flexible to implement the kind of completion that we have in the
category editor. That's why the old mechanism was preserved (we failed
to port it).

Anyway the recommendation is to use KMyMoneyMVCCombo on top of a model
if it can be used to implement the desired behavior.
