yep, this has changed in LC 8.

Here a script that I use in my „Tools2“ palette to open the inspector for a stack or current card:
########################################################
on mouseUp
   select the topStack
   set itemdel to "."
   if item 1 of the version < 8 then
      send "revBuildPropertyPalette" to stack "revTemplatePalette"
   else
     ## Inspector for stack:
      revIDEOpenInspectorForObjects the long id of the topstack

       ## Inspector for current card:
      ##  revIDEOpenInspectorForObjects the long id of this cd of the topstack
   end if
end mouseUp
########################################################

No idea for the selected object, always doubleclick the objects, but maybe:
…
revIDEOpenInspectorForObjects the long id of the the selectedObject
…
?
