Description

Rendering points as output of calculations and other processing is a good first step.

A user should be able to select points, and groups of points, for further analysis. This is similar to the `Keep Only` or `Exclude` functions that are used in Tableau's mapping functions.

Kept (selected data) or Excluded (All - Selected) should then be exported back to a DF for additional analysis.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing point-rendering path in the Mapbox GL JS and Python Jupyter integration. Compare the requested Keep Only and Exclude behavior with the current map interaction and dataframe export flow. Done means users can select individual or grouped points and export both selected and excluded data back to a dataframe.
