Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the picking-state implementation and its public API, then define how callbacks receive picking deltas and verify that callbacks fire when picking changes in both directions.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Might be nice if the user can specify callbacks that are triggered on picking events. Basically when the picking state changes this callback gets triggered and is provided with the picking delta (i.e., which element(s) went from unpicked to picked and vice-versa).
