You need to sort it's items that you get via getItems().

It might be worth to add one undocumented characteristics:

ComboBoxCellEditor does not clone the items when accepting them nor does
it do so when returning them, this means you can invoke
Arrays.sort with or without your defined Comparator directly on the
return value of getItems() and invoke setItems() again which will
repopulate the CelllEditor with the sorted items.
