Ruby/Rails gem for picking multiple items from a list

I assume that most of us have seen the style of "item picker" where there is a list of items in a box to one side; some arrows buttons in between, and another box on the other side, which contains the "picked" items.

Like so:

Picked               Available
+----------+         +-------+
| item1    |    <=   | item2 |
| item3    |   =>    | item4 | 
+----------+         | item5 | 
                     | ...   |
                     + ------+

Is there a gem which does this for me?

It should work 100% browser side with minimal fuss on the server side. The number of items is limited, so scrolling, AJAX paging or whatever is not required. The list of available items will be sent with the form; the list of picked items can be returned with the submit in whatever way the gem seems best.
