+### Multiple chooser panel
+
+A new panel type [](multiple_chooser_panel) is available. This is a variant of `InlinePanel` which improves the editor experience when adding large numbers of linked item - rather than creating and populating each sub-form individually, a chooser modal is opened allowing multiple objects to be selected at once.

+This feature was developed by Matt Westcott, and sponsored by [YouGov](https://yougov.com/).
