selflink editable by content editors

I would like to add cms_selflink's to my template, that are editable by content editors via a drop-down of all pages.
Does this exist?

In the past, we always used a oneline-content block, where the content editor entered a page alias. We assigned this to a variable, and used it in the selflink.

This doesn't seem the best option to me. Are there alternatives in CMSMS?

Thanks

There are a couple of content extension modules which let you add a drop down list of pages to your template:

We've used Calguys Content Utils module in the past which has worked well for us:

and the Extended Content Blocks module has been around for a while and is well maintained so that might be worth a look as well.
