@FunctionalInterface
public interface Selector<T extends Input>

Selector Used to provide an override form selector for a property in a form. For example a pull-down menu. Normally we will have the Factory classes implement this interface to provide a selector for the objects they create. The same selector should be used to both generate the HTML form fragment and to parse the resulting input. Note that a useful convension is to use the name parameter as the name of the form input. If there are multiple form inputs for a single selector then the names should be derived from the name parameter.
