I really like using
form_choices
to guide my user into inputting into the create form.However, it's limiting in the sense that my users can't use anything else not defined in form_choices.
Is there a way to have form_choices with an extra option, i.e. "Enter your own" so that users can input custom choices?
(I know form_choices is intended to limit what a user can enter. However, another use case will be to allow some flexibility in allowing our users enter a custom option)
