Support for custom drop down item properties

[mwpowellhtx]

Hello,

So, following a couple of the examples, a simple item might look like this:

{ text: "Some text", value: 1 }

However, how may I convey custom user properties?

{ text: "Some text", value: 1, myCustomDetail: "Some custom detail" }

And half expect that this would land in the resulting items as an attribute.

Either that, or specify an "id" that I can later reference; probably fairly simple with a jQuery on the parent Drop Down I suppose, but would like to avoid those gymnastics if I can simply specify the attribute in the first place.

Thanks!
