<Select> element cannot be forced uncontrolled

[ruggi99]

Hi all, I'm creating a demo page where I show the various form elements in a modal card. All these elements are uncontrolled inputs and it's wanted. All except <Select> where options cannot be changed without making a controlled input. EDIT: doesn't work in multiple mode or not

Looking at the code you are forcing the defaultValue if value isn't specified and the defaultValue cannot be specified.

I think forcing the value isn't good practise because the input will be controlled

EDIT: Using value={null} makes the Select uncontrolled but React prints a warning about this:

Warning: You provided a `value` prop to a form field without an `onChange` handler. This will render a read-only field. If the field should be mutable use `defaultValue`. Otherwise, set either `onChange` or `readOnly`.

Can you explain a bit for your use case of needing an uncontrolled input?

No particular use case from my side but it's the only controlled input in your library. In my demo page, as said above, I have to do state management for a value that I don't care

You should be able to use an empty string as the default value.

<Form.Select defaultValue=""><options...></Form.Select> doesn't work

Will look into it.
