    I have a multiselect widget in a modal. Because the multiselect has dynamically generated values, I need to call $('select').selectpicker(); when the modal code is injected.

    Emphatic agreement.

    Today, even apparently trivial widgets require ridiculous amounts of effort to attain a "natural" UX. To become so good you don't notice. That holy grail of being "invisible".

    Epochs ago, I created custom controls for Win32. The one I was most proud of was a direct manipulation sundial picker for a raytracer. I obsessed over the details. Like being pixel perfect, both mouse and arrow keys (for fine grained increments), live updates between dial widget and text fields. Damn, I was proud of that control. I gushed and preened whenever a user complimented the effort.

    Ages ago, I started using bootstrap-select. It's a nifty dropdown w/ type ahead (search). Modest, no big deal, right? Nope! That project received so many PRs, tweaks, fit & finish, finesse, and all around TLC. I was transfixed, fascinated. I haven't done UI for years, but remained subscribed to their project announcements, mostly out of awe and respect.

    Observing the bootstrap-select project over time humbled me. I used to think I had some UX juice. Now I know that I'm just banging the rocks together.
