select1 appearance

I have a use case, which is best illustrated with this example:

(which is a version of something that comes from my original XForms  
tutorial  
https://homepages.cwi.nl/~steven/xforms11-for-html-authors/part2.html)

My example uses a row of triggers at the top, which then toggle the  
respective switch case.

What I wanted though was that the trigger stay at a different colour once  
clicked. So in the above example, each trigger sets a value to 'selected'  
and then uses that as an AVT in a class to style the selected tab.

What struck me though was that this row of triggers is really just a  
select1 in a different guise.

So I redid it using select1:

and my conclusion was that this woulld be really useful as a standard  
@appearance value, since I could imagine using it in lots of different  
places.
