consider adding ability to multi-select from region search results as is done for gene search results #339

I guess the difference between these two scenarios is that the region searches may come back with different neighborhoods. although this solution might not be ideal, we could simply pass along the max neighborhood along with the list of focus genes. Perhaps more ideal would be to allow neighborhoods to be specified per gene, though this may well be on the more-trouble-than-it's-worth branch. Still, it would be nice to allow users to get back more or less exactly what they had asked for (why would one supply multiple region queries if not actually intending to pull them all into one view? this is of course different from getting back multiple regions just because your search was fuzzy)

It's worth noting that the region search does fuzzy matching on the chromosome name, so you could get multiple regions for a single query. That said, I take your point about wanting to select multiple regions for viewing if multiple regions were queried for.

I think this is more of a UI feature than a backend feature. Moving to the Client epic.
