What it also means is that if you need to tweak something and
re-render, you cant kick of LPub and then leave it rendering with
little interaction. Being able to save LPub settings is very handy
here...

Yes, the lack of undo is a bit nasty. You might also take a look at
LeoCAD, which has recently undergone much more development than MLCad
(which doesnt seem to have been developed at all in about 3/4 years),
but does not natively use the LDraw format. It exports and imports
fine, and builds its peice library from the LDraw library anyway.

peeron.com is a place to look up sets, models and peices. I would
start with looking up ambulance, and hospital, and then seeing which
minifigs the sets listed come with. I turned up
http://peeron.com/inv/sets/6688-1 and
http://peeron.com/inv/sets/606-1.

Well the unnofficial list is a help, but you might also want to look
into LeoCAD which has a minifig generator, which will allow you to
choose from a selection of heads, hats, torsos, arms, legs and
accessories. There may not be a red cross, but there may be clearly
identifiable medics.
For an example of Lego stop motion (just so you know what people have
done), google for Lego and Camelot for a Lego rendition of a Monty
Python classic.
