title: How can I display option text on the dropdown menu that is different than the selected text?
body: <p>Using a simple <code>select</code>, I want to display one text on the dropdown list and another text in the select control after the option was selected. It's pretty similar to option's <code>label</code> attribute in its concept.</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure if it's even possible. Here's a <strong>not-working</strong> example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select&gt;
    &lt;option select-text="-- EMPTY --"&gt; &lt;/option&gt;
    &lt;option select-text="YES!!!"&gt;Yes&lt;/option&gt;
    &lt;option&gt;No&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
  </code></pre>

  <p><strong>Update:</strong> I didn't mention that I need to incorporate this solution in a generated HTML (ng-table filters), so any solution that is not pure HTML will be very hard to use. I even consider to look for another table control as a simpler solution, which is pretty basic - placeholder text in select filter.</p>
