Dynamic Replacement

System configuration is provided to set the minimum amount of options required before the component is rendered as a ui-select. By default, this value is set to 20.

Stores -> Configuration -> Catalog -> Catalog -> Admin UI

Statically Declared UI Components

Not every form has a pool of modifiers, most are statically declared. Since modifying attributes within these forms generally requires a new ui_component file, customisation to additional attributes can be done there. For example:

view/adminhtml/category_form.xml

<!-- some fields -->
<field name="my_custom_attribute"
       component="Aimes_ImprovedAdminUi/js/form/element/ui-select"
       formElement="select">
    <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
        <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
            <item name="multiple" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
        </item>
    </argument>
    <settings>
        <elementTmpl>ui/grid/filters/elements/ui-select</elementTmpl>
    </settings>
</field>
<!-- some more fields -->

This should be merged with any other desired/required settings. Settings can be found on the default ui-select component documentation.
