I am wishing that RT supported CustomFields in a way other than Name == Value

This makes it impossible to have a CustomField showing a bunch of Names whose 
Values are [for example] integer Object IDs




In my case I have to store billing rates for service calls, supporting multiple 
external service organizations with multiple rates

It's going to look stupid because you can only have one (1) option in the final 
menu

ServiceOrg == ServiceOrg -> RatePlan == RatePlan -> Cost $ == Cost $


A cascade of two would be fine -- but it's impossible, right?

ServiceOrg == ServiceOrg -> RatePlan == Cost $



Am I stuck with mashing the cost into the rate plan string and extracting that 
with code anytime I need the value ?

ServiceOrg == ServiceOrg -> RatePlan, Cost $ == RatePlan, Cost $



thanks

Oh, another thought just occurred to me as well -- what happens in the future 
when Rates change ?   I don't want to have changes to the available rates 
change the amount's that were applied in the past !!  Is there any way to set 
an option within a CF to disabled ?  (exists but cannot be selected)
