MultiSelect For Bootstrap 5 similar to select 2 (Floating Labels, Ajax, Data source, Pagination)

Prerequisites

Proposal

Dear development team,

I'm writing to request a new feature for Bootstrap 5: a MultiSelect component similar to Select2. While there are some third-party libraries available, it would be great to have a multi select component built directly into Bootstrap, as it would ensure consistency with the rest of the framework and simplify development for those of us who are already using Bootstrap.

Specifically, I'd love to see a MultiSelect component that includes the following features:

Floating Labels: the ability to use floating labels for the input field, as well as support for different label positions (e.g. above, below, inside). Ajax Support: the ability to load options asynchronously via AJAX, with support for pagination and custom filtering. Data Source: the ability to use a data source (e.g. an array or JSON object) to populate the options, with support for nested data structures and custom templates for the options. Pagination: the ability to paginate through large data sets, with support for both server-side and client-side pagination. I believe that a MultiSelect component with these features would be a valuable addition to the Bootstrap framework, and would be a popular choice for developers who are looking for a flexible and powerful way to handle multiple selections in their forms.

Thank you for considering my request, and please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional information.

Best regards,
