Description
I'm not sure if this functionality can be achieved with this module?
It would be great if options that are out of stock would be greyed-out in the select box, and be un-selectable.
That way you could see which options are out of stock before actually selecting them.
Thanks!

I am not sure if greying out options is possible in HTML at all, might be something to look at some time. The only thing I can think of are very seldom possibilities where the stock can change in the backend and it won't show on the user's side until he refreshes the page. If you want/can investigate about this, that would be great.

There is an empty attribute disabled for options:
<option disabled="disabled">title</option>http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#adef-disabled
Instead just disabling, the label should be changed to "title (Out of stock)".

Thanks for pointing that out. Now I give a second thought to this, it seems that this is not a task for such a module like this. I am sure there should be a way that the attributes form can be themed or altered to display the disabled options in the attributes form element, rather than doing that with this module, as this is mainly an usability module, not that much of changing the display of things.
