Ember.js How to access the whole object selected from Ember.Select?

I have the following content for my select options in my controller:

opts: [
    {id: 1, code: 'TEST A', desc: 'DESC A', other: 'EXAMPLE A'},
    {id: 2, code: 'TEST B', desc: 'DESC B', other: 'EXAMPLE B'},
    {id: 3, code: 'TEST C', desc: 'DESC C', other: 'EXAMPLE C'}
],
v: 2,

And this is in my application.hbs

{{view Ember.Select
    content=opts
    optionValuePath='content.id',
    optionLabelPath='content.code'
    value=v}}

This renders the select element with TEST B as pre-selected.

Question

How do I get the whole object whenever I select a value from the list? I understand I can get the value through this.get('v') which returns the value of the select element. Is there a way to get the other properties in the selected object?

Please help.

You van bind to the selection which gives you the object itself

{{view Ember.Select
    content=opts
    optionValuePath='content.id'
    optionLabelPath='content.code'
    value=v
    selection=foo}}

this.get('foo');

this.get('foo.id');
