Hello Peter!
I have integrated OpenMap into an application monitoring different
mobile devices.
I made an own layer that extends the OMGraphicHandlerLayer. The only
thing to do was to override some methods to enable right-click menu,
tooltip and infoline.
Through the right-click menu, the user has full access to the device
actions and its properties.
The layer also updates the devices through JMS to enable real time
monitoring of the devices.
It was quick and painless I must say =)

Try overriding the setSelected (OMGraphic om) in OMGraphicHandlerLayer.
Get all the related graphics and set them as selected to super.
