Material cluster selection in Maya?

RageUnleashed

I've split my character into 3 different materials, I was wondering how I could select the regions of geometry specific to a material. In XSI you can select specific clusters, so how does one pull off mutiple texture sheets on a character in maya?

In hypershade if you right click a material node, you will get a marking menu that says "select objects with material"

Filbot

Is there a way to limit this section to a current selected layer and not all the faces in the entire Maya file?
