Entity BaseFields of type list_string do not get a select list exposed filter in Views

I have a custom entity, with BaseFieldDefinitions. One of which is a list_string type. When I try to add an exposed filter in Views for this field, it defaults to a textfield instead of a select list.

When I look at my entity's EntityViewsData::getViewsData() method and dump the results, it's listed as simply "string".

argument => string
filter => string

It'd be nice if it used list_string or whatever the name is for the select filter (if I could find that I could probably just alter the ViewsData myself and get going for now, but ideally this should be automated for BaseFields).
