Wouldn't it be simpler to just create SelectItems from the submitted values, in the VCL, and set the backing bean property so they match? Who needs a phase listener and why add ALL the values from the picklist, when I have everything I need in UIInput.getSubmittedValues(). This seems so logical to me that I'm shocked it isn't widely used in JSF, let alone that JSF takes the liberty of telling me that my submitted values MUST be members of the original List<Selectitem> (the latter I find to be a tremendous gaffe in the spec).
