easy way: create a property of type 'tokens', specify a bunch of
strings, seperated by spaces (e.g. "abc def ghi jkl"). Say you call
this token property 'option_choices'. Now define a property, type
selection, with a value of 'option_choices'. Voila.
the slightly trickier way: make an object that returns a list of
strings. Set the value of the new selection property to the name
of this object. Done.
