Comment:

 If you have [https://github.com/jumpinjackie/mapguide-rest mapguide-rest]
 installed, you could do a GET of

 {{{
 http://servername:port/mapguide/rest/session/<YOUR_SESSION_ID>/<MAP_NAME>.Selection/features.geojson/<SELECTED_LAYER_NAME>
 }}}

 For selected features as GeoJSON

 Load that returned GeoJSON into a OpenLayers.Layer.Vector instance and
 hand that off to a ModifyFeature control for editing.
