Connect to LO server, and print `CurrentComponent.CurrentSelection`
I need to programmatically focus a slide in Slides pane, so I could copy the
slide. However, it seems like selection of the slide does not influence the
Selection property.
# Steps to reproduce
1. Run `soffice --impress
--accept="socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager"`, and
dismiss "Select a Template" window.
2. There should be a pane titled "Slides" on the left with a single slide.
Click it. (note, how Edit → Copy menu was grayed out before, and became
available afterwards, which means you succeeded in selecting the slide)
3. Execute attached `test.py` script, which prints the currently selected
object.
## Expected
Something different from `None`
## Actual
It prints:
None
