selectize initial load of options but non persistent
<p>I am initially, via ajax, loading options into an already initialized selectize control.</p>

<pre><code>// being called after an ajax requests
addOption: (items) =&gt; {
    let selectize = this.control_element[0].selectize;
    selectize.addOption(items);
    // not sure if needed
    selectize.refreshOptions();
}
</code></pre>

<p>I do want these initial items to be persistent, however I do want user created items to be persistent. So I have set persistent to <code>false</code> on the options.</p>

<p>How do I reconcile the two? Because if I remove the loaded values, they will not persist and will be removed. Is there a flag that I can use or call a method to regenerate the option list?</p>
