Feature request to filter ManagedParameters

Using the ManagedParameters is very helpful for having some shorthand ways of adding relatively complex controls.

It would be great to be able to add in our own ManagedParameters through a filter on the managedTypes() function, or to be able to register a new ManagedParameter and add to that array.

Use cases might include adding On / Off choose controls, select controls with frequently used options, etc.

Just a thought!

E.g. when setting up my own custom Headline component, I will add in a choose control for the h tag, always having the same options available:

"tag" : {
    "type" : "choose",
    "options" : [
      { "value" : "h1", "icon" : "h1" },
      { "value" : "h2", "icon" : "h2" },
      { "value" : "h3", "icon" : "h3" },
      { "value" : "h4", "icon" : "h4" }
    ],
    "initial" : "h2"
  },

Absolutely I can give you tools to create your own managed parameters. I will update this thread with more info and create docs when I launch those changes. Have a great day.
