getItemById including select statement possible?

Hi, I sometimes have seen code that uses getItemById with additional parameters. It seems that it´s also possible to include a select statement. Is it actually possible to do something like this? ...

Hi Chris, ok, that´s really some special behavior and probably has it´s reason. The code where I have seeen the additional properties were quite special use cases. In my case, the classical and proven get queries already perfectly do the job. I do not have to make experiments everywhere. One last question: Is there any difference between these two ways to call the IOM on client side? 
var itm = aras.IomInnovator.newItem("Part", "get");
itm.setAttribute("select", "name");
itm.setID("C1A218EE1CF5461F964BEAED127211E6");
itm = itm.apply();
var inn = this.newInnovator(); 
var itm = inn.newItem("Part", "get");
itm.setAttribute("select", "name");
itm.setID("C1A218EE1CF5461F964BEAED127211E6");
itm = itm.apply();
