[Feature Request] Server side pagination for v-autocomplete/v-select (loading more items on scroll)

V-select and V-autocomplete load more items on scroll, this only loads more items into the HTML, but the items prop has to be filled already. It would be nice to be able to load this from the server.

What problem does this feature solve?

Some API’s endpoints are paginated, for now when i have an autocomplete i add a parameter like perPage=10000 to API request parameters so everything works, except this is really slow.

What is your proposed solution?

Add a prop which indicates if you want to use server side pagination, when the onScroll method from v-select at this point it raises the this.lastItem, it should fire an event which then can load x more items from the server.

👍 to adding this feature or creating a new component.

@tyteen4a03 It is possible with the append-item mentioned by @KaelWD but i prefer a more build-in solution by vuetify like the PR i’ve made. Because i think this is an issue which multiple users have and if everyone has to build an own way in the v-select/v-autocomplete. That’s a waste of time.

Or perhaps someone could create a plugin for this but then that has to be maintained to and checked after every new vuetify version update.
