OpenSTAAD Function to Retrieve all Existing Parameteric Surfaces' Names

Usually we start creating the parametric surface mesh by assigning a name. However, there will be situations where we need to clear all the existing mesh definitions and then start afresh. It will be much helpful if there is a function in OpenSTAAD to retrieve the names of the existing parametric surfaces so that one can interact with those surfaces as needed.

I checked the existing functions exposed the OpenSTAAD object and I could not find a function that does this job.
