Hello,

would be possible to extend select input functionality in pipeline to support selection of multiple options at the same time or alternatively add checkbox input?

We currently use text input as a workaround:

```
  - block: ":rocket: Deploy to production! :dragon:"
    branches: "master"
    fields:
      - text: "Which components you want to deploy?"
        key: "components"
        required: true
        default: "admin platform-api-v4 rw-api workers cronjobs"

```

Thanks.

Good news, we’ve just added support for this:

> **[Support for selecting multiple options in block steps](https://buildkite.com/changelog/63-support-for-selecting-multiple-options-in-block-steps)**
>
> We’ve added a new multiple property to block steps, giving you the ability to select multiple options when unblocking builds ☑️

No need to use a text input anymore 🙌🏼
