title: IEnumerable<string> to SelectList, no value is selected
body: <p>I have something like the following in an ASP.NET MVC application:</p>
  
  <pre><code>IEnumerable&lt;string&gt; list = GetTheValues();
  var selectList = new SelectList(list, "SelectedValue");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And even thought the selected value is defined, it is not being selected on the view.  I have this feeling I'm missing something here, so if anyone can put me out my misery!</p>
  
  <p>I know I can use an annoymous type to supply the key and value, but I would rather not add the additional code if I didn't have to.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: This problem has been fixed by ASP.NET MVC RTM.</p>
