Does anyone know of any current use of the ObjectCategory message or the Category information it carries?

It is used in LLSelectMgr::selectionSetObjectCategory(), but this
function doesn't seem to be used anywhere in the viewer code...

I would say that it would allow to set the category (inventory folder)
to which the object is to be "derezzed" (this is normally set on
rezzing for objects dragged from the inventory and dropped into the
sim, so that when "Taking" the object back, it reappears in the
inventory folder from which it was rezzed).

I've done a datamine on the whole v-d repo history and couldn't fine
any usage of LLSelectMgr::selectionSetObjectCategory(). I'd do the
same on 1.x but my SVN clone of it isn't handy. I have the feeling
that message hasn't been used in a long time.
