Description
Idea from @justinshaffer.
In terms of implementation, I guess this'd just involve 1) figuring out what legends are active and 2) which the current tip / clade / barplot is applicable to? And then mapping the selected tip to its category in these legends. Not sure how easy that will be -- we may need to store more information in each `Legend` object or something to make this easier.

Research direction
Start by tracing how clicks on tips, clades, and barplots identify the selected item, then inspect how active Legend objects expose their categories. Determine how the selected item maps to applicable legends; done means clicking any supported item highlights its category in every relevant active legend.
