[sldev] finding out the uuid of a newly created object

[Stan Vernier]

I started messing around where the messages from the server are dealt 
with for objects.  I can see when I create a new object, which is a 
great start.  For some reason though, The UUID that is in the message is 
not the same as what you get using the gSelectMgr.  Anyone have any 
ideas why this is happening?
