clearing a typeahead doesn't work when it's typeahead-editable="false"

[jnizet]

I think I found a small bug a typeahead. When I try to clear the typeahead (by setting its model to undefined), it works fine if the typeahead is editable, but it doesn't if it's not editable (i.e. its typeahead-editable attribute is false).

The bug is illustrated, with an ugly workaround, in this plunkr

Yes, it looks like we need to do better here!

I agree that this would be a very welcome fix.

I'm having some trouble with this too. It sets my model to an empty string when I clear the input.

This seems to work for me:

$scope.$watch('typeaheadModel', function(newValue){
    if(newValue == '')
        delete $scope.typeaheadModel;
})
