Currently the mapper attribute is set to default return str(item) and the choices property only iterates over string entries. This fails for lists of objects where you want to fuzzy match on a string attribute of the object. This should be improved so mapper can be more easily customized, without also overriding choices.

I've been using the fuzzy_types repo for the last month and I'm really loving it. One thing I've noticed though is that I need to log instances when the fuzzy match is less than 100. I've implemented this by monkey patching the __getitem__ method of FuzzyBaseDict to log to the console for now.

I think it would be great if the user could pass a callable to any of the FuzzyTypes and that callable would have a standard signature .Then the user could execute any arbitrary code (e.g the logger) when a perfect match isn't found. I forked the repo and got a barebones version of this working rather quickly for FuzzyDict. I'd be happy to polish it up and submit a P.R if you like.
