Thanks Dan. For the widget, something like this (
http://quasipartikel.at/multiselect/) should work well. It offers both
selecting a subset of options as well as ordering them.

I am evaluating OpenStack for a private cloud and if the POC goes through
fine and we get to actual deployment, hopefully I can contribute back
something.

Thanks,
Balu
