Select all options.
Widget.Select.selectNone(elem);
Unselect all options.
Widget.Select.invertSelection(elem);
Unselects all selected options and selects all other options.
Widget.Select.moveSelectedOptionsUp(elem);
Rearranges the order of the options within the Select element by moving all selected options up one position. The options remain selected.
Widget.Select.moveSelectedOptionsDown(elem);
Rearranges the order of the options within the Select element by moving all selected options down one position. The options remain selected.
Widget.Select.moveSelectedOptionsTo(sourceElem, targetElem);
