Feature Request - Select Editors

I’m submitting a feature request

• Browser: all

• Language: TypeScript

Current behavior: Not Implemented

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? Currently there are select, singleSelect and multipleSelect header filters. Would it be possible to implement SelectListEditor, SingleSelectListEditor and MultipleSelectListEditor? I created a proof of concept for myself to see if this was possible using the using the columnDefinition.filter properties. I used those property values because the editor select list would behave the same as the header filter if only the values in the header’s select list were allowed to be chosen.

Benefits:

1. Data Integrity on the grid
2. Easier for the user to see predefined values if there are a lot

Challenges (I am sure there are others I cannot think of):

1. Sorting: if the value is an integer and the label is a text field, the gird will sort on the value and not label.

FYI, I just added a new commit that adds inline editor undo command (thanks to a PR that came in my Angular repo).
