I am after tweening events more than the actual position of a selector. ie. class.increment(); <short pause> class.increment(); <slightly longer pause> class.increment(); <even longer pause>... until stop
So I would be providing a UI of selected items via visual easing. I think I have this nailed down... just wanted to get some other ideas on how best to approach it.
