I'm assuming there is no way to do this so raising it as an issue in
launchpad for the future.
Personally I think it is super useful to do.
Specifically:
- An extension should be able to pass back a set of ids for inkscape to
replaces as the current selection.

The inkex.py file looks for these and groups them under inkex.selected
for easy retrieval.
I want to change the user's selection in my extension (they pick one
path, I want to add to that selection).
I can see (thanks to perspective.py) how to tell a new inkscape process
which items are selected and that it should work on.
BUT I can't see how to signal back to the original inkscape my new set
of selected paths.
(I was hoping for a inkex.setselected() to match the inkex.getselected() )
How is it done, is there an example ?
