Either you include the first element in the CFCs (in a centralized way for all), or you add a result handler in ActionScript and add a first element in the result handler, or you extend the ComboBox to automatically add a first element. There are always many ways to do something, it's just up to you to evaluate which solution seems the best suited and the most maintainable.

My data provider is the event.result from a call to a CFC method.
