Description

When I use the default UI selectInput (multiple = TRUE). I found that I can not delete the item that I have selected unless I press the "delete" button on the keyboard. Will there some possible way to add one 'x' button to the item that I have selected to delete that item?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the default selectInput with multiple = TRUE and confirm the current keyboard-only deletion behavior. Trace the selectInput entry point and its UI behavior to determine where selected items are rendered. Done means a selected item has an accessible visible deletion control and existing multiple-select behavior remains intact.
