Something needs to be changed where now it is necessary to
actually select things before you can get information about them.

I always assumed that this is how it works at the protocol level,
but if that is not true then we need something that evades having
to use the LLSelectMgr.

Same thing for the Parcel manager. Right now you need to select
a parcel before you can get any info about it; that is not really
nice for a future client-side scripting plugin.

Rob, would you be so kind to add a comment to
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-553
about this?

PS I found this in my "draft" folder, not sure I ever send it :/ Therefore
sending it (again?)...
