Sections and subsections

That was actually needed and implemented differently in an old version of the NSIS package installer. Instead of clearing the selection of dependent sections, the required section was set to read-only and its name was suffixed with "(required)" when a dependent section was selected.

I prefer to allow the developer the freedom to implement the logic as required. However, I do agree this can be easier. The .onSelChange callback can be more powerful. It can, for example, receive information about what exactly happened instead of guessing according to saved states.
