Thanks for this sample, I will forward it to our devteam to contemplate the optionLabel + server filtering combination for improvement in future versions.

Jon, the dropdown supports server filtering, see this demo for reference:
http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/dropdownlist/serverfiltering. 

Suggest functionality with auto-complete is supported only via the combobox widget.

I've created an example of how DropDownList's optionLabel creates a selectable item, when it probably shouldn't.

The automatic selection of the first item behaviour appears to work only when the optionLabel is not specified. When optionLabel is configured, hitting tab/enter on the input selects the first item - which is the optionLabel item.

Maybe optionLabel should not be an item?
