Dynamic list that allows website editors to set the values

Vote:
 

Anybody out there know of a good implementation of a Dynamic list-style property that allows content editors to create the list values, i.e. does not store them in web.config?

An implementation that works sweetly across load-balanced servers would be nice (i.e. uses a database to store the list values) 

Hoping to avoid the hassle of writing one...

Cheers, 

Ben.

Quess you could use the categorie tree to store the values in. Make a not visible tree of items and show theese items in a dropdown list.

Haven't done an implementation of this, but it should be doable in 15min :)

Yeah, that's one way around it, I guess. Problem is that I believe that the categories are earmarked for something else on this project.

It looks like I might have to roll up my sleeves...
