Could anyone clarify the way feature selection works in OL 2.13.  Currently I'm 
using a ModifyFeature control that is not configured for standalone mode.  The 
user clicks features using the mouse and this effectively sets the select 
render intent on the feature.  The user can also select features from a grid 
control, in which case I call modifyFeature.selectFeature(featureRef), which 
also sets the select render intent for the feature.  That all works fine, but 
now I need to handle selectfeature events and do some extra stuff but when I 
registered a handler on the layer for the featureselected event like this:

layer.events.on({"featureselected": onFeatureSelectedHandler});

it never gets called.  So I found this link 
https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/issues/972 that says this is not a bug 
I but still really don't understand standalone vs non-standalone mode.

I also tried adding a selectFeature control and supplying a callback function 
like this:

selectFeatureControl = new OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature([layer],
    { onSelect: function () { console.info("selectFeature.onselect fired"); } }
);
map.addControls([modifyFeatureControl, selectFeatureControl]);

but that didn't work either.

What do I need to do in order to be able to receive selectFeature events and 
still do the other stuff described above?   Should I use standalone or 
non-standalone mode?  Do I have to use a selectFeature control regardless of 
the mode if I want an event to fire when a feature becomes selected?

Thanks,
Tom
