[Feature Request] Add an option to v-select to manually trigger the dropdown menu

[HugoCrd]

New Functionality

I'm using a v-select with autocomplete. This component works great, and almost answers our use-case :)
Almost, because right now it shows the dropdown menu on input focus.
In my use case, I want to only show this when a user starts entering text in the input.

Improvements

The current workaround is to use max-height and set it to 0 when nothing was entered on search-input but I find it quite hacky.
Adding an option like trigger would allow us to do that in a better way.

Bugs or Edge Cases it Helps Avoid

That would prevent users to add hacks on top of this element.

If you think this would fit in Vuetify, I could help adding it and provide a PR.

Thanks for your work, it's an amazing framework you have there!

This would be a really good enhancement.
My workaround does not remove the shadow, making it not perfect to my eyes ;)

Once again: I'd be happy to work on it if you think that makes sense (or if you can think of a better solution to achieve the same).

Cheers
