inner events of components provides a fixed set of parameters , there is no unified event object ( in case, when inner event related to real html event , html event object may be accessible but it differ for different events )

In most cases custom set of parameters provides all necessary info about event. If you have a situation when they are not enough - please provide more info

Unfortunately, combo doesn't provide methods to sort options in it.

The list should be sorted before it loaded into the combo. It can be server-side sorting, for example, sorting using SQL command (in case of fetching data from the database).
