Pardon the title, I am not sure what these things are officially called.
There's a group bent on using select elements aka dropdowns with built-in
search/filter functions. I believe there was a thread here a while ago, but
can't find it. Unless I am mistaken, the thread leaned towards not using
them, even though they can be made accessible. The PM and the second
developer didn't know what framework they were using, and have yet to hear
back from the lead, but they think Bootstrap "or based on it."

Any pointers would be great, since i have yet to get access to their code.
