András,

There's no "text coder" right now. One way to overcome this is to make 
those kinds into items as well, so that your data would look something 
like this:

{
    items: [
       { ...
          kind: "k1"
       },
       // other items here...

       { label: "First kind",
          id: "k1",
          type: "Kind"
       },
       { label: "Second kind",
          id: "k2",
          type: "Kind"
       },
       ...
    },
    properties: {
       "kind": {
          valueType:   "item"
       }
    }
}
