When using Kendo UI for Angular's ComboBox or other DropDowns in Reactive Forms, clicking the 'X' to clear the control removes the associated value from the FormGroup entirely. This behavior differs from other frameworks like React and Blazor WASM, where the control remains but is set to null. Currently, developers must manually handle this event to retain the control in the form. It would be beneficial if clearing the value only set it to null instead of removing the control from the FormGroup.

Expected Behavior:

Clearing the form when using the clear button should act like a form reset.
