In response to comment #4 - this is a problem that also exists with the current function to create a carousel from a record bucket. That process creates a second (carousel) bucket based on the initial (record) bucket, so if you add an item to the initial (record) bucket afterwards it does not get picked up. It also does not show the carousel buckets in the dropdown, the only way to get to them is to go to the Carousels interface and click on the link in the Bucket column. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1920234 for this issue. So, although I think this usability should be improved, I don't think it should stop this from going in since it matches the behavior of the existing function.

I also tested and the only quibble I have is that when creating a carousel from a Record Bucket, the "Create Carousel from Bucket" link is on the Buckets dropdown, so my expectation would be for that link to be in the same location when creating a carousel from an Item Bucket. It took me a moment to realize that I needed to look in the actions dropdown instead and that I'd also have to select items. My preference would be to match the behavior of the Record Buckets interface and have it on the Buckets dropdown and have it automatically use all of the records in the bucket with no selection necessary.
