How or what add-on allows me to set the value IDs of custom field options?

unknown

When designing a web page we all know we can give dropdown, checkbox, radio button, etc., options both 1.) a display value and 2.) a value.  Usually the value is used as the "value ID" of the option.  But, with the OOTB fields types in Jira as well as some 3rd party field types, none of them allow the configuration of both a value ID along with a value display name.  Behind the scenes Jira assigns IDs to the value options which can be seen in the DB as well as the source HTML on the page where it is used but there is no way to configure the IDs ourselves.

Anyway, I'm looking for an add-on that allows me to create some common form input fields (checkbox, radio button, dropdown, etc.) with configurable value option IDs.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There is no way to do that, it would require a rewrite of some of the fundamental parts of Jira from the ground up.

That isn't going to happen, because there's no perceivable use for it.

Could you explain why you think being able to choose underlying ids would be of use, rather than letting the service handle it all for you whilst providing perfectly good labels?
