Thanks. I am quite lovely aren't I? LOL

Here is a rough example that I thought of, using python commands and assuming a 
start and end selection
https://gist.github.com/1398060

I don't really check the original selection to see if its only two vertices or 
faces, but this should give you an idea. Hopefully I didn't over-think your 
problem.
I used a regex to get the int vert/face number instead of using the maya api 
since that approach seems like too much code just to get the index from the 
selection:

import maya.OpenMaya as api

sel = api.MSelectionList()
api.MGlobal.getActiveSelectionList(sel)
compIter = api.MItSelectionList(sel, api.MFn.kMeshVertComponent)

component = api.MObject()
meshDagPath = api.MDagPath()

vList = []
while not compIter.isDone():
        compIter.getDagPath(meshDagPath, component)
        if not component.isNull():
                vertIter = api.MItMeshVertex(meshDagPath, component)
                while not vertIter.isDone():
                        vList.append(vertIter.index())
                        vertIter.next()
        compIter.next()

I may be a little slow from the holiday weekend and overlooked some easier way 
to do it. But thats as much as I can do with a bunch of turkey in my stomach :-)
