Summary: Keywords in the prompt field when defining a block attribute.

Description: I would like to be able to provide Keywords in prompts for Block Attribute Prompts.

How Used: When defining a Block Attribute there is a Prompt field which we can type anything we want into it. Quite often the value for a prompt is only three or four standard values. It would be nice to have more then just the Default value. By providing Keywords in the Prompt field the user could specify another standard value without having to do much typing. An example would be I have a prompt that reads...
Specify the well status [Active/Inactive] <Other>:
If the draftspersion pressed "A" or "I" the corresponding word would be used for the attribute's value. It would also be wise to provide a way to format the words. Rather then "Active" being the value I might like "ACTIVE" to be the value. Another consideration for this would be a prompt like...
Specify the well status [Active/aBandoned]:
Where I would want "Abandoned" to appear rather then "aBandoned".

I see this added functionality to attribute prompts as saving a lot of typing and help to reduce spelling errors. Also this would alert the user to what expectable/expected values are.
