Our clients are requesting that the search in the multiselect look like the search in the dropdownlist. They want it to be in the list that opens rather than in the value box and want a consistent operation and look. This should be an option that can be set when initializing the multi-select. I attempted this using the forum post below but it is quite buggy and requires a lot of modifications.

I have a requirement to show parent rows below the child rows, such that when a parent row is expanded the children show up above the parent. Currently from the options, it seems that parent row can only be expanded to show children below the parent. This is not supported by the grid or treelist, and Kendo support has requested this be logged as a feature.

Add a hidden input to store the current value in it at all times, and a visible display input that has the month/day/year or current value displayed in it; it solved all of the issues and is currently implemented on numerous other Kendo form input controls.

This will make the DateInput compatible with JQuery Unobtrusive Validation.
