Recommendations for a multiple select plugin

[TheWilks]

I am looking for recommendations on a multiple select plugin. We were using select2 originally but it has some serious IE11 bugs. Any direction would be great.

Checkboxes are normally used for multi-selection because they are usually more accessible and usable than multi-selects. Is there a reason why checkboxes aren't sufficient? They are natively supported so would have better performance and mobile support than JavaScript-based alternatives. Note also that multiple selects have been natively supported by browsers for quite a while but they do pose keyboard challenges.

What issues does it have with IE11? I've used it quite successfully for filterable selects and haven't noticed any issues.

@pjackson28 We didn't go with checkboxes for multiselects because we had to allow the user to multiselect from potentially a hundred different items and that many items on a page would be too cumbersome.

@CalvinRodo The issues seem to be with the multiple select feature only. The selection drop down requires an option selection before the drop down will close. See select2/select2#3300 for details on the issue.

Maybe it's too early, but just by occasion, are you ready to close this issue or otherwise?

@wilkmit @CalvinRodo @pjackson28 : Can this issue be closed?

On my end we just fixed it ourselves so it can be closed. However it would be nice to have a completly accesable solution other then check boxes for when multiselect lists get to long.
