I'd be even willing to submit a pull request if it does.\r\n\r\n### Auto-select typed tags\r\nUsing the *Tagging* example from [here] (http://selectize.github.io/selectize.js/), our users tend to type something but then click away with their mouse instead of hitting <kbd>Enter</kbd> or <kbd>Tab</kbd> or selecting the `Add {value}` option that appears below the textbox after they've typed their value.  They're then surprised that what they typed disappeared.  We've received numerous reports that our input control is broken because of this.  I think it would be better to auto-select the value on `blur` like the _tags-input_ plugin does:\r\nhttps://github.com/xoxco/jQuery-Tags-Input\r\nhttp://xoxco.com/projects/code/tagsinput/example.html\r\n\r\n### Searching without clearing first\r\nUsing the *Single Item Select* example from [here] (http://selectize.github.io/selectize.js/), our users are confused why they can't start typing and search for an item if one is already selected.  We keep getting reports that this is broken.  It turns out that if an item is already selected, then the user has to hit <kbd>Backspace</kbd> first to clear the selected item before they can type and search for an item.  It would be more intuitive if they could just start typing and search for an item, even if an item was previously selected, just like how [select2] (https://select2.github.io/examples.html) works.\r\n\r\nThoughts?"}}
