Thanks Diego. I'll think about this for a little bit and see what shakes out
of the tree.
I sort of like the recipe being more explicit and have meaningful labels for
the checkboxes. I'm not sure how I could do that with "#tests div" without
adding/assuming stuff about the HTML DOM.

Rather then manually starting up the control panel by defining each

$.jVariation({...});
it would be nicer to simple say...
$('#tests').jVariation({ /* settings here */});
...where jVariation would automatically take (say), every div within
#tests and create the controls for it... But that's a whole new can of
worms!
Thanks for sharing. I'll definitely find it useful...
