Support itemValue and itemLabel for rich:comboBox
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-6230
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-6230
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Felipe Jaekel


When using a SelectItem object, only the value property is used.

The problem is when data is populated from the database, the value property is 
necessary for holding the entity primary key, since the property that is used 
as label isn't always unique at the database, like the name property of an 
Employee entity for example. It has also the problem of having to write extra 
code to retrieve the entity. Having the ID there are already some entity 
converters available and when using JPA there is the EntityManager's findById 
method.
