A Select component based on the native html select.


Why a select component? Because `Ember.Select` is hard to use, and
really, all you want to do is just use a `<select>` tag dammit. The
only difference is that you want value of the options to be any object
and not just a string.
Why a select component? Because we've done the hard work and built a
select component for you. Sometimes all you want to do is just use a

Calling upon @tehviking for your words. Your words are the best. I could use your words here. I do not have the best words.

There are a lot of options out there for fancy dropdowns, but after spending many months writing them, we've learned you can't beat a native <select> for reliability, accessibility, and low cost of maintenance. <x-select> is a drop-in component to let you use any object for your selectable options. You can use it out of the box, or as a building block of something more ambitious.

The goal of <x-select> is to let you see how it works and style it right in your template, rather than passing in a ball of configuration or wrapping a hard-coded, inaccessible jQuery plugin.
