Often it is difficult to decide what fixes need more time testing in trunk and which ones are crucial enough to be merged. Usually I add only fixes that I feel are important, which is very subjective of course.

I would add a comment explaining the need for the GetItemIndex call, however ;-) I recall combobox went through various iteations to fix synchronizing state between the LCL and the underlying widgetset...
