Stacking Racial Custom Special Abilities with Dropdowns

[frumple]

I have a bunch of racial custom specials chosen via configurable that need to stack (taking them multiple times has increasing effects).

Most of them I can code using the following to assign Helper.FirstCopy as needed

~ see if a quickfind has been created by another copy of this ability
      perform quickfind.setfocus

~ if we didn't find a redirection, we're the first copy of this ability to run this script, so we'll make ourselves the FirstCopy.
      if (state.isfocus = 0) then
        perform quickadd
        perform assign[Helper.FirstCopy]
   ~     SPECIFIC CODE

~ otherwise, redirect hero.child[] to the FirstCopy, and make us an upgrade
      else
        perform focus.redirect
     ~  SPECIFIC CODE
        endif

But there is a problem. The ability has one or more choices (via usrChoice1, etc.) I only want the abilities with the same choices counted when I am trying to assign Helper.FirstCopy.

For example, let's call my ability ABILITY which allows the user to select and ability score (Abil1) and a natural weapon (NatWep).

Now, I have two instances of ABILITY selected multiple times
ABILITY (Abil1, NatWep1) and ABILITY (Abil2,NatWep2).

I want something like the above code to run, but assign FirstCopy to the first instance of each case.

I think you're best bet would be to make individual abilities, which will make many abilities, but I think it's the only way you'll get it to stack properly.

I can make individual abilities for let's say doing ability damage. But they can be applied to any focus/natural weapon, etc. so doing individual ones for those is not practical.
