Comment (by celloexpressions):

 @bradyvercher @karmatosed of the options (for the control structure part),
 the last one would probably be the most preferable from your perspective
 since it's closest to the current option. Start with a generic control for
 sorted multi-object selection based on a `choices` argument, then try to
 build it out to fully work for this feature. If we go crazy with cross-
 syncing to the front page control, we may need a child control of that to
 get this actual part to work well.

 Most if not all of the other items in [comment:114] after the first list
 will need to happen and aren't mutually exclusive. I'm increasingly
 thinking that we need to make selective refresh a requirement, and @pento
 may be able to help wrangle the internals to facilitate that. Let me know
 if you have questions or alternate ideas and we can work through those,
 here or in Slack.
