+    List box elements are numbered from zero and while the maximal number of
+    elements is unlimited, it is usually better to use a virtual control, not
+    requiring to add all the items to it at once, such as wxDataViewCtrl or
+    wxListCtrl with @c wxLC_VIRTUAL style, once more than a few hundreds items
+    need to be displayed because this control is not optimized, neither from
+    performance nor from user interface point of view, for large number of
+    items.
+
+    Notice that currently @c TAB characters in list box items text are not
+    handled consistently under all platforms, so they should be replaced by
+    spaces to display strings properly everywhere. The list box doesn't
+    support any other control characters at all.
