Hello! I am trying to add drop down support to my Kendo React Spreadsheet element. I am following this set of docs but the result does not seem to be working when tested using the most recent React component.
Not working example - https://codesandbox.io/s/fervent-driscoll-2mwf49?file=/app/main.tsx
Working but not using react - http://dojo.telerik.com/IgiFEwEN
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, Ramsey,
The KendoReact Spreadsheet is a native React component and it currently does not have all the features of the Kendo UI for jQuery Spreadsheet. Of course, our goal is to further enhance it and implement all the features available for the one on jQuery.
Currently, the custom editing feature is not available for the component. In addition, thank you for logging an item on GitHub for this feature. Each release we review the submitted ideas and plan the most popular ones for implementation in future releases.
The item you logged will be directly updated when there is any progress on it:
If you have any further questions on this matter, please let me know.

Thanks @Wissam,
A few follow ups:
1. do you have an idea of when this will be picked up and implemented? We are blocked on our integration until we have drop down support?
2. do you have any workarounds for the time being? I tried rendering a Select element in a cell but the React spreadsheet component steals the focus from the select element and doesn't allow the end user to interact with it. I also tried to leverage `registerEditor` but this doesn't seem to be supported by the React component either.
3. is the source for the component publicly available? Depending on the lift I'd be happy to implement the feature and submit a PR.
Hi, Ramsey,
This feature is currently in an unplanned stage. Basically, each release we review the submitted ideas and plan the most popular ones for implementation in future releases.
However, I can understand how important this feature is for your case since it is blocking your integration. Therefore, I will discuss it with the developer responsible for the Spreadsheet component in order to increase its priority.
As for the source code, you can obtain it by following the steps in the following article:
