| According to the Bridge AM MS:
GETVARSELECTOR DIRECTIVE
Include to provide REGISTRATION FM support. Will
return the variant selector attributes stored in
in DNS (or local MIR) for the specified entry.
The Iconic Map uses this directive to get the variant selector attributes
(the ones flagged by the DEPENDS ON clause) from the Registration FM.
In other words: the GETVARSELECTOR dispatch entry points at the REGISTRATION
FM, but the GETVARSELECTOR directive is placed in the MS (and thus
Dictionary) to allow the IMPM to access it (similar to specifying the
REGISTER directive for child entities).
The user typically doesn't see this directive, though I think V1.1
allowed GETVARSELECTOR to be issued from FCL.
