Reflector says StringCollectionEditor is an internal class.

internal class StringCollectionEditor : CollectionEditor

You may have to implement your own.

Note ListBox.Items uses:

[ Editor("System.Windows.Forms.Design.ListControlStringCollectionEditor,
System.Design, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a", typeof(UITypeEditor)) ]
public ListBox.ObjectCollection Items
{
}

ListControlStringCollectionEditor derives from CollectionEditor.

I don't know why this class (CollectionEditor) is not public, doesn't make
any sense to me.
