Select 2 data array with additional fields to customize the templateResult

[lmsmartins]

How to translate this into the Yii2 select2 kartik widget? I think the "data" attribute from the widget only allows for id -> text. Is this snipped of code possible using the widget?

    var data = [{
       id: 0,
       text: 'enhancement',
        html: '<div style="color:green">enhancement</div>'
    }, {
       id: 1,
       text: 'bug',
        html: '<div style="color:red">bug</div><div><small>This is some small text on a new line</small></div>'
    }];

    function template(data) {
        return data.html;
    }

    $("select").select2({
       data: data,
       templateResult: template,
       escapeMarkup: function(m) {
          return m;
       }
    });
