What OP means is, they'll tap on the plus sign, and select a contact. Then click back on the plus sign and select one more. And if they have to mail 50 people, that's fifty cycles between the contacts UI and the mail. What they're asking for is a way to select multiple contacts at once.
I agree with phredyll, typing in the name and clicking on the suggestions seems to be the most seamless option, and I'd probably use that even if a checkbox method like the one OP is requesting existed.
