      1. Create a "Select" course custom field with three values:
        1. Apples
        2. Bananas
        3. Melons
      2. Create a course and choose "Bananas" as the value for the custom field
      3. Edit the custom field and add "Avocados" after "Apples", before "Bananas"
      4. Go back to course configuration
      5. Make sure "Bananas" are selected and not "Avocados"

      Currently the custom field "Select" stores the position of the option in the list of options.
      It has several disadvantages like messing the information if any option is addes on the beginning of in any place that is not the end of the list.

      Just like the custom profile field, this changes to store the actual "display" value of the option.

      By the way, I noticed we have no "Custom fields" components, so I chose UX.
