This will probably become an embedded feature in Grasshopper, but for now you can create a custom select and custom bake components using VB.NET.
The following examples show the details (click to download) . They show how to select a paneling grid created using PanelingTools plugin for Rhino 4.0, manipulate in Grasshopper, then bake back to Rhino as a valid paneling grid to apply paneling patterns.
A lot have changed since this post. PanelingTools is now extending Grasshopper and you can do the grid and paneling inside GH. There are select and bake components as well. Check this: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/panelingtools
