Description

While creating a subclass of DropDownChoice, I wanted to write a specialized reverse mapping function that would allow the option value to be used as the primary key for direct lookup of the object. Unfortunately, AbstractSingleSelectChoice.convertValue() is has a 'final' modifier. (I'm guessing this is an inside joke because it does a linear search... )

Any chance of removing the final modifier?
