Select value displayed in backend "Item list"

When using a select field with label and value:

options="House|house, Apartment|apartment, Room-share|roomshare"

editors will see a select with "House, Apartment, Room" in the region's form.

But in the item list table (the one you specifiy with "item list column IDs" in region options), the editors will see the value, so "roomshare" instead of what they selected ("Room-share"). This applies to dataselect too, probably also radios and checkboxes.

It would be consistent if editors always would see the label and never the value.

Yes, that's true. It's a compromise that made the feature possible.
