With an item selected, I want to reset the drop down list to the state it has when the page loads, i.e. populated with nothing selected.
Setting the backing filed to zero does not work. I have read Clear the selection, I know it works if you have a default text,
I dont't want to have a default text.
As you can see in the repl, there's some more experiments, since I thought I could maybe clear the content and re-populate
the list to reset it.
Setting the data source to null does nothing?!?!
Clearing the data source removes the items in it, but keeps the selected value!?!?
I've seen answers to this question that suggests using CSS to achieve this, but that's just stupid and shouldn't be necessary.
Finally, we have the hack solution, which is totally crazy but seems to work.
I leave it here for others to see, since it seems a lot of people also have this problem.
Please fix this.
