In my opinion you should not use the ComboBoxCellEditor excessively. The keyboard support you mentioned is an important point to improve the handling.

I've a Viewer ontop of them and afterwards listen to KeyEvents automatically poping up the DropDown-List and applying a Filter on the items. This makes editing without any Mouse-Interaction possible.
