New control: Multicolumn listbox as cluster

Many of us would have experienced situation where we would like to have listbox indicator or control as opposed to using array of cluster. For eg.

This is achieveable with the help of array of clusters containing different control.

To some extent dropdown menus can be implemented in listbox, but with with large and complex codes with property nodes.

It would be great to have listbox control / indicator which would be simple to use like cluster element; as in below.

Such a listbox element is very useful in product testing application.
