Adding selection of policies in order to create different plan scenarios

Would it be possible to create a menu similar to placement policies when performing a plan, but for automation policies. This way we can do something like this:

Lets say we have two policies already created:

  • Policy 1  -> I want to scale workloads when the mem reises over 75% and CPU raises over 85% -> More aggressive
  •  Policy 2 -> I want to scale workloads when the mem reises over 55% and CPU raises over 60% -> Less aggressive

We want to check what would be the difference between both possile scenarios. So, we can create a plan just selecting the policy we want to check first (policy 1), then another with the other one (policy 2), and then we can compare to different plans. In order to have more scenarios. Obviously if both are active, then the most conservative will take the lead, but it would be a fancy way of creating different scenarios.
