Emitting multi-selection values with Dashboard 2.0 dropdown node

In the Dashboard-1 dropdown node, an array of values would be emitted when the multi-selection was done and we clicked outside the dropdown menu to close it.

In contrast, in Dashboard 2.0, an array of values will be emitted for each change in the dropdown menu, as soon as we select or deselect an item in the menu.

I definitely preferred the behaviour of the old dropdown node, for instance when creating a database query based on the multi-selection, avoiding sending a query at every change in the menu. Would it be possible to have an option in Dashboard 2.0 dropdown node when to output values? At every change vs. when the dropdown menu is closed (clicking outside the menu)? Of course, it would be possible to solve this by creating a Submit button, but I would prefer if I could avoid that.

Good request that we should support
