Subject: Wicket ListMultipleChoice or DropDownChoice with code/decode

For some reason I am finding that most Wicket examples have select box
examples that offer single dimension arrays.  But most lookup
selection use cases I've ever encountered use a short key or 'code'
that the user does not see, and then a longer descriptive 'decode' for
the user.  The classic being a state lookup using the postal code (MD,
NY, FL, etc) but showing the user a state name (Maryland, New York,
Florida respectively).  What is the usual way to do this?
