Research direction
Start by examining the current Select component implementation, likely in packages/select/src. Review how Blueprint handles submenus in the Menu component, especially the SubmenuItem component. The goal is to allow items within Select to have nested submenus. Check the Popover component's interaction patterns to ensure proper focus and hover behavior for submenus. Reference similar feature requests or PRs in the repository for design patterns.
