Support for values which are different from their label

[garjitech]

The autocomplete items support value and label properties. It might be useful to allow these to be different. For example, in the case of emails "First Last" [email protected] might be pasted into the input field. In this case, the label would be set to the display name and the value would be set to the email address. If label and value are allowed to be different, then the isNew function should probably check the value property (rather than the label property) when determining if a new input already exists.

Nice idea. During the next days I'll not have the time for doing something like this. But I'll go for it.

I'm curious if any progress has been made on this feature. I'd like to use it as well (to show users a count of how popular each tag is). I tried using jquery autocomplete event callbacks to do this but they seem to interfere with Tagedit so it won't work. Thanks!

I have a custom version which I'm using which supports it. I'll try to get it up there tonight.
