I know nothing of the internals to trac, but what you should be looking
for is how the HDF dataset for clearsilver gets populated, since that's
what you will use in clearsilver to render your select widget.

Searcing for "dataset" or "hdf" or at worse "parse" or "render" or even
worse "neo_cgi" or "neo_cs" would be where to start to backtrack from
where the hdf is passed to parse/render (or CS creation from neo_cs) and
then figure out how to access that hdf.
