Try _GRIPS = 1 or 2 for the grips.

Parametric modeling applications are perfect for things like this (Revit, Inventor, etc). Just throwing it out there is all as a tip.

SOLIDHIST has to be turned on before solids are modified. That plus CTRL-Click on a face for Subobject selection should yield the same results as shown in the video.
