Alternative name for dropdown selectables

[RabaDabaDoba]

Let's say that I want to select one of many products by some complex UUID, but I know by the name like "Yellow Shoes". I thing it would be awesome to be able to have a drop down of (in this case) readable names but it returns the long UUID instead. Such that each entry has a display name which is shown in the drop down, and then a value that is returned.
