Hi Tomasz, 

For the specific use case, I think the OP is asking for the QML equivalent
of QComboBox.lineEdit().   

In C++, by inspecting the Qt sources, you can often code for a specific
internal private objectName or class type to use with QObject.findChildren,
or in your css, since that QObject information is public anyway.  Needless
to say, this is just a version specific HACK and should be flagged and
commented as such! 

Alexander, do you have another use case in mind?  It might clarify your
requirement.  (I haven't played with QML yet but I thought all QObject info
is exposed to javascript and the components anyway - isn't that how the
linkage is achieved?)

Regards, 

Tony
