I don't think it's possible in action
I make this yesterday by making my own html form

% my $create = Jifty->web->new_action(class => 'CreateGroupe');
<select name="<%  $create->form_field_name('group_name') %>">
% while (my $item = $groupe->next) {
<option value="<% $item->id %>"> <% $item->name %>
% }


see 'form_field_name' to preserve continuation

I've just working with
here my first working test :    

use Jifty::Action schema {
  param search =>
        autocompleter is \&ldap_search;
};

sub ldap_search {
    my $self = shift;
    my $search = shift;
    my @res;
    if (length $search > 2) {
        push @res, $search.' 1';
        push @res, $search.' 2';
	}
    return @res;
}
