Selecting multiple attachments

I’m missing the option to select multiple attachments (for example, to sign them or send them via email).
I'm not referring to using any naming pattern or attachment group, but rather giving the user full flexibility to manually select the desired attachments.
Has anyone found a way to achieve this? Perhaps it would be possible to use a Item List that would dynamically display all attachments and allow them to be selected?

We did something similar few years ago. The user had to be able to choose and also sort documents, we then merged to one pdf.

It was the time when I introduced the first version of the modal dialogues, which Daniel Krüger improved a lot.
Have a look at https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2022/modal-dialog.

We used a menu action that opened the form in a dialogue. The form has an itemlist, which we initialize with the attachments of the calling element. And some more to name and categorize the merged pdf. The workflow only has a path to merge the selected pdf's and add the merged document to the attachments.

You could do something similar to send selected attachments in an email.
