Techically you can just return custom option as 

            if (!mysql_num_rows($res))
                print ("<option>No records found</option>");

It will be shown in option list instead of normal options.


More complex solution can be build by redefining the _fillFromXML method of combo, which triggered each time when  xml loaded.
