<select>
list from asource:http://foobar

|pretty
to your CSS or xPath filter (maybe this should not be available for xpath)and then you add a extract filter to just extract one line, but the whole list appears as one line of text
URL | https://foobar.com/page.html
FILTER |
#id-of-selectbox|pretty

using jinja2, they could be also chained
|int|if int > 10
