Select a list using checkboxes about elm-form HOT 4 CLOSED

Hello,
It's easier now that we have sequence in validations (I just published 2.0.0).
I forked your gist, see checkboxList function and usage:
https://gist.github.com/etaque/9f8d50a4a9de0a105adcfaff0426d410#file-main-elm-L39-L55

This function should probably make his way into the package, but I'm not sure of the name: we already have list and sequence, things are getting confusing here.

Ah, sequence in the new version is great! Thank you for looking into this. I agree that something like checkboxList should be a part of Form.Validate. I found a minor inconvenience though — if the keys are numeric, the selection does not work. I have updated the gist, have a look at the difference between colors and colorsWithNumericKeys.

This can be worked around by prefixing the field name with some constant string and adjusting the options, but it took me a while to figure out why it wasn't working.

I suspect numeric keys would be the norm if the things being selected over come from the backend.
