Datamanager 2 simple select widget.

It can only be bound to a select type (or subclass thereof), and inherits the configuration from there as far as possible.

Available configuration options:

int height: The height of the select box, applies only for multiselect enabled boxes, the value is ignored in all other cases. Defaults to 6.
string othertext: The text that is used to separate the main from the other form element. They are usually displayed in the same line. The value is passed through the standard schema localization chain.
