Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

We have the need to have a page with category blog layout but select several categories that are not nested. This also allow to have a rss feed for several categories

Describe the solution you'd like

I have made a copy of the feature view (This allow several categories) and the featured model( comment line ('filter.frontpage', true);) register the new router and it's working.

Additional context

Could this go to the joomla core, I think this is useful for others.

Just use tags to achieve what you want. That should do the trick.
A real multicategory (not nested categories) view isn't possible with Joomla. You get issues with ACL and routing.

I share @Bakual concerns BUT without seeing the code it is stab in the dark. Please submit a Pull Request with your changes so they can be evaluated

I will make a pull request for review, but @Bakual concerns are unfunded because this is just other view of articles, there is no change in the article, just like feature blog view but for items that are not feature, acl and routing just the same.
