Is object selection now working?

I was looking at putting in the object selection code snippet when I noticed some code in the scripts that made me think that it may have already been reimplemented in the engine. Does anybody know if you can now click and select objects?

If it has been reimplemented is there an example of it working in any of the example missions (i.e. rw, racing, waterWorld, etc)?

I would like to be able to click on an object to select it and then through scripts either double click or right click to "use" it, store it in inventory, or examine it (depending on how I set up the scripts and what object is selected).
