Comment (by Stephen Swatman):
Replying to [comment:6 Tim Graham]:
> I still don't find the example in the documentation particularly
compelling. Instead of adding CSS classes for that case, I would use CSS
[value=x] selectors.
The particular case that inspired me to create this issue is that I had a
model and I wanted to create a choice widget for that model. I wanted each
option to be styled such that it had a background image served from a
different server such that I needed to construct an attribute of the form
`style="background-image: url(https://somewhere.com/images/[id].png)"`
where the ID was the model's ID. The problem was solved by extending the
`Select` class and overriding the `create_option()` method. However, I
feel it would have been more easily solved had the pull request I created
been in place.
Still, I absolutely understand if you think this is too niche. Thus, if I
haven't convinced you please feel free to close the issue!
