How to move (or dynamically create and delete) markers

Question

I have a very simple task for a QML app, but it's proving to be harder than I expected. I would like to display a set of markers, and then as a function of user input redraw a different set of markers. There are several examples I found for building geometries, but none of tearing them down, nor moving them.

What is the simplest way to accomplish this?

Thanks! As an addition to your suggestions, I also found that I could just nuke the entire set of points by `

graphicsOverlay.graphics.clear()

This lets me sidestep the problem of building the scaffold to tracking individual points separately.

Could I humbly suggest expanding the list of examples to include simple manipulation of points? I think what made it confusing is that move and remove markers can only happen in JS code, whereas the simple creation of the point happens quite naturally in QML.C.f. https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-runtime-samples-qt/blob/main/ArcGISRuntimeSDKQt_QMLSamples/DisplayInformation/Simple_Marker_Symbol/Simple_Marker_Symbol.qml#L5.
