As we have established already, jQuery 1.x does not correctly handle
`data-*` attributes where there are multiple dashes. This makes it
so we can still handle nested options when working with jQuery 1.x
by using the `.dataset` option that is supported by all major
browsers as well as IE 11+.
Browser support tables for the `.dataset` attributes can be found at
http://caniuse.com/dataset
A notice was already added to the documentation about this in
caeb0ec9b7.

Select2
Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and pagination of results.
To get started, checkout examples and documentation at https://select2.github.io/
Use cases
- Enhancing native selects with search.
- Enhancing native selects with a better multi-select interface.
- Loading data from JavaScript: easily load items via AJAX and have them searchable.
- Nesting optgroups: native selects only support one level of nesting. Select2 does not have this restriction.
- Tagging: ability to add new items on the fly.
- Working with large, remote datasets: ability to partially load a dataset based on the search term.
- Paging of large datasets: easy support for loading more pages when the results are scrolled to the end.
- Templating: support for custom rendering of results and selections.
