Here's a wacky idea for the detail page.

Would anyone be interested in a java applet on the page where they
could actually zoom in/out and rotate the part without DownLoading
the Dat, or starting any other tools?

Probably.  Depends on how big (bytes) it is.  And what (if anything) needs
to be specially installed on the user's machine (I'm fairly ignorant about
java applets).  And how powerful it is.

I'm not sure how different this would really be compared to setting
up your MIME types correctly so that your browser just starts up
another viewer when you click on the DAT file, but I think it might
be something at least some people might like as an option.

If it runs in the browser, it would be noticeably different.  If it could
retain settings between different pages, that would be pretty cool, too.

If it has to retrieve all subfiles from the ldraw.org server, and doesn't
cache them, that would be bad. :(
