Not allowing to enter custom value and only showing values configured for the field #80

When I am configuring the custom control backed by 'Operating System' field which is a multi select string picklist, in the work item I can only see and select values configured for the field. When I click on the 'Add Item' it expands the control to select the existing value but no way to enter new value.

In other hand if I put the field 'Operating System' also in the layout it allows to enter values separated by the semi columns. In this case I get two fields in the Layout.

The control today is designed to only let you pick from the existing list of configured values. The intent is that you update the list to add new values you want to support into it.
