Pull request #14 introduced a selection system for elements. Selecting regulators seems useful too, but there's no selection system for regulators as of pull request #46. Let's introduce one.

Deciding how the element and regulator selection systems should interact will take some thought. As mentioned in issue #44, there aren't many operations that act on both elements and regulators, so element and regulator selection sets should probably be independent.

Issue #44 points out that allowing parallel selections of elements and regulators might conflict with the expected behavior of the outline view. We might therefore need to deprecate the outline view in order to address this issue.
