Comment (by westonruter):

 One other thing that I think needs to be factored into this design is how
 to display any existing changesets which are currently scheduled or other
 changesets that are currently drafted. Or do we only allow one single
 changeset to be drafted/scheduled at a time for the first iteration on a
 core merge? This is the so-called “linear option”. In that option, when
 you open the Customizer you would be opening with whatever the latest non-
 published changeset is, whether that be drafted or scheduled.

 For the non-linear option, which is what Customize Snapshots implements,
 there can be any number of concurrent changesets drafted or scheduled at a
 time, and in that case each time you open the Customizer you'd be starting
 a new changeset. In that case, you'd want to be able to get a list of
 other changesets drafts or scheduled for publishing to open for additional
 edits.
