Make the selected <option> available in the select2:select event

[Stadly]

The <option> that was just selected does not seem to be available when listening to the select2:select event. In the select2:unselecting and select2:unselect events, the unselected <option> is available through e.params.args.data.element/e.params.data.element. I do not see a reason why the <option> should not be available in the select2:select event, since it is created at this time. For the select2:selecting event, however, the <option> is not yet created, and obviously cannot be available when the event is fired.

Looks like a bug to me:
when using a select2 with the multiple option, event.params.data as well as event.params.currentTarget retain the last option selected before this selection, not the option that triggered this event.

Any news on this?

It's possible that #5058 (released in 4.0.6-rc.0) has fixed this. Would be helpful if everyone could try out the pre-release and see if it resolves this behavior!

I just made a CodePen to test. But I can't seem to reproduce the issue now. Not even in version 4.0.2, which was the most recent version when this issue was created. In the CodePen everything seems to be working. Can you have a look, @cigaar? Maybe I've forgotten and misunderstood the original issue completely.
