What's NewSpeak for TV:MULTIPLE-MENU-CHOOSE?

It's not at all clear to me how to use modern presentation-based
functionality to achieve the effect of the old TV:MULTIPLE-MENU-CHOOSE.
For example, I want users to get a pop-up menu of the elements of a
set (sequence) of which they can choose more than one. This behavior
should occur by accepting a presentation of a particular type (for
example, GENERAL-SUBSET).
Ideas anyone?
Is this srea (i.e., old menu styles) simply a big hole in the new UI
system?
If the elements of the set are all symbols, then the SUBSET presentation
type does what you want.
