Selection listing for the MATCTX (MATerialize Context - for those new to
MI a context in MI normally means a library) is a exellent way to do

Also the QEZOLBKL API should be able to return the similar information,
but I've not checked the docs for the API yet, and *could* be faster as
it access the changed object list.
