Using a ComboBox with suggest=true, it will suggest values using a case-insensitive comparison; however, when tabbing out of the combobox, it will only select the suggested value if the value typed so far matches exactly.

Using the example from the KendoReact documentation, if I typed 'Aus' then it will suggest Austria, and if I tab out, Austria is selected. If I type 'aus' it will also suggest Austria, but when I tab out, nothing is selected.

Looking at ComboBox.tsx in the source code, it seems like this hard-coded true on line 471 is preventing this behavior:

const valueIndex = getItemIndexByText(data, text, textField, true);

Is there any way to make it select the suggested value on blur even if the cases don't match? Note that this is the default behavior of the Angular ComboBox.
