Doable for simple lists of values without related ids.

This may suit my use-case as I'm using denormalised data and another copy of the name is no big deal.
Related keys aren't dumped in the HTML attributes so can't lookup the related menu item and trigger menuselect
as you need the related dropdown element.
The source
function itself is interesting, takes a term and triggers a callback with the matching object, however we need the reverse of that. The filter
function only checks value
and label
.
Not seeing anything on the jQuery end which could be used to hook in, it's all tied to the dropdown elements themselves. Could be extended to do so, but not sure how their release schedule works...
Is there a way to setup two way binding with autocomplete. As it is autocomplete uses objects with label and value properties. What would be ideal is if the autocomplete widget could get proper two way binding with an observable, and the value of the widget was always set to the label.
