Support templates in the DropDownList selected value
Currently templates are only supported when the DropDownList is in an open state.  Ideally, the DropDownList should have the ability to display a template when in a closed (selected) state as well.

A common use case is to display icons next to the dataTextField.  However in it's current state, when an item is selected the icon is no longer able to be displayed.

Looks like this has been fixed in the Q3 2013 release.

There is an example of this on the Kendo dropdownlist demos:  http://demos.kendoui.com/web/dropdownlist/template.html  It is disappointing that the source code does not show how this is done.  Probably because it is so clumbsy to implement.

This is a much needed feature. Any word on including this in the future?

I too think this should be high on the list of features to be implemented. To NOT display the template during the selected state is inconsistent and looks unprofessional.
