I will have a serious look at your approach, since you have solved some of
the problems I'm stuck with - later, when time provides.
This approach differs from my current LDA project, but as I said to James
Reynoyd in my latest I mail, next planned LDA version will be totally
revised, using the LANI syntax (why have two different?) and will only
produce one POV file.

I wonder when the first animation with a real story, not just a walking
minifig, a moving vehicle, or light and/or camera moving around [almost]
static object will be seen... I have bounch of ideas for short slapsticks,
but will not be able to present any of them this year... :o(
