title: ExtJS : Re-selecting the same value does not fire the select event
body: <p>Normally, when you select an item in a combobox, you would expect it to fire the select event. However, if you try to select an item that was already selected, the select event is not fired. That is the "normal" behavior of an ExtJs combobox.</p>
  
  <p>I have a specific need for an ExtJS combobox: I need it to fire the select event even if I re-select the same value. But I cannot get it to work. Any help would be much appreciated!</p>
  
  <p>Example here: <a href="https://fiddle.sencha.com/#view/editor&amp;fiddle/2n11" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://fiddle.sencha.com/#view/editor&amp;fiddle/2n11</a>
  Open the dev tools to see when the select event is fired.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using ExtJS Classic 6.6.0.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: I answered my own question and updated the Fiddle with working solution.</p>
