I imagine a section called Element Overrides with a scope bar-type thing that just shows two options that can be multiply selected. When the appropriate bar item is selected we show the pseudo overrides or the class toggle section below.

Element Overrides [:pseudo] [.class]
------------------------------------
[ ] :hover         [ ] :active
...
------------------------------------
[ Add new class ]
[ ] class1 [ ] class2 ....
------------------------------------

... rest of the rules ...

This is fairly similar to what Chrome does except our filters always go on the bottom, and it's possible to see both override sections expanded at the same time.
