Editable JComboBox is always left aligned even if its 
ComponentOrientation is set to ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT.
Otherwise if it's non-editable, it responds correctly by right-aligning
its contents.


import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

/*
 This is a testcase for ComponentOrientation bugs in JComboBox. Please note
 the following problems:
    1- setComponentOrientation() by itself has no effect on JComboBox. You have
       to loop through its children to get the desired effect.
    2- Even when you do so, the button and the scrollbar are still always on the
       right side regardless of the current orientation. They should be on the
       left side for RIGHT_TO_LEFT orientation.
    3- When the JComboBox is editable, it cannot be flipped.
