How do you set the placeholder when using chosen js plugin

ethics.systems

The default placeholder doesn't seem to work when using chosen js plugin. I tried using data-placeholder but that breaks. When using just placeholder it just keeps coming up with the default selection, "select an option".

        
        fields: [               
                    {
                        "label": "Select A Vendor:",
                        "name": "vendor_select",
                        "type": "chosen",
                        "options": {
                            placeholder: "Select A Vendor"
                        }
                    }

                             ]

Just figured out how to set it on a somewhat global level, but still private to the datatables. Modify editor.chosen.js in the set function. I'm sure there is a way to do it from the javascript on the page, but so far this works for me.

    set: function ( conf, val ) {
        conf._input.attr('data-placeholder','Select A Vendor');
        conf._input.val( val ).trigger('chosen:updated');
    },

The chosen documentation doesn't list placeholder as an option. Possibly you need to use placeholder_text_single which is does document.
