Multi-select in methods will be confusing. Which method will appear in
code pane? if code pane is modified then do all the methods have to be
recompiled?
Multi-select is will be quite useful in class/method categories because
categories may be used as filters. But it needs to be done with care. I
find the multi-select in the "help->About this system" disconcerting
because it reuses select for select-again violating POLA. Multi-select
list should be visually distinct from single select lists.
