Suggestion Switchable Inter-Town Portals

Asynchronized

With towns becoming bigger and bigger (especially the plans I have for mine), I seem to get into a jam as to where to place the Inter-Town portal, and I think I have an idea of how this could be solved for many towns that require more than one portal because of their scale, however this idea also isn't really me saying "add more portals!!!", its more of a cool logistical addon to the inter-town portals.

So say, you've defined multiple areas as destinations (or sources) for your inter-town portals, maybe there could be a GUI to switch which one of these portals are active and make them appear/be active portals. This could help in situations where towns are massive and building access routes between main points are not really practical (ex. I'm starting to build my farms at the deepslate layer to prevent lag for anyone above ground), and placing a portal at an entrance to this place would appear more practical. But maybe limit it to 5 destinations and 2 sources otherwise people will just have portals everywhere and will never think to do any transport projects in their town. This is a suggestion that would go well with a towns update in the future :D . (level 26 maybe could grant this switchability feature?)

(however maybe im just too lazy to walk)

For a lot of towns that have basically owners playing, wouldn't this essentially be a third portal? Having the ability to have preset locations of portals and easily switching between them is just more portals with one extra step.

Fwiw, more portals good imo

I mean sure its basically just more portals, but you could have one source that goes to anywhere you wanted, and still keep your spare sources for elsewhere.
