Filtering a Select Box
Has anyone successfully introduced functionality whereby they can filter a select box ?
For example, if I have a an employees table and a document table, and I have a form that adds document records for employees...
I'll have a select box that allows me to select the employee(s), but what if i wanted to enable the users to filter that list down, such as maybe all the employees with a certain grade etc ?
I realise there are other ways to achieve something similar, like starting with the employees table and having bulk add...
But wondered if anyone else had tried this approach ?

@Povilas K , @ralphjsmit - (cheeky, I could find this out myself with enough research, but you'll know straight away question)... do these solutions work where the Create form is already modal\slideover ? (I understand nesting modals is challenging) ??
Yes, that does work! You can add eg a tableHeaderAction() with a modal form and then it should work.
You would need to test if CreateAction::make() works, but otherwise a normal Action::make('create') with a form and action works fine for sure.
