    Basically what is known as "lazy loading" in other places. 

    We use the "Multiple element picker" for anything with this issue (so we do not see it), but I can only second that it would be nice to have this feature for dropdowns as well.

    Totally agree, it would be great to have "lazy loading" like functionality for dropdowns.

    Would also be really great in element pickers to have the ability from dropdowns to modify the item text.

    That would make it easier to use element pickers for filtering by parent (as a proxy for element type, often the element name of the parent isn't something i'd like to show the end user), and to include contextual information in the filter list. For instance in an application browser i would like to prefix all of my dropdown elements with the number of applications that this filter applies to using a smart column, AFAIK i can currently only do that with dropdown lists.
