Description

As suggested by @grizeldi one should be able to select a Spatial of some Controls or Filters (WaterFilter's SceneNode)

I imagine an implementation doing via "OnSelectedListeners" which one can subscribe to.
Another alternative would be a cloned SceneExplorer which opens up when you click in PropertyEditor, but then you can't select them in the scene.

Research direction

Start by tracing the PropertyEditor and SceneExplorer entry points, then inspect how Controls and Filters expose a WaterFilter SceneNode. Compare the proposed OnSelectedListeners approach with the alternative cloned SceneExplorer, including whether selection can occur in the scene. Done means a Spatial can be selected for these properties from the PropertyEditor; no specific files or tests are named in the issue.
