"Bogus commands", eh? Interesting choice of words. However since
Parts Tracker is going to complain about any unofficial or undocumented
meta commands in submitted parts, it'd be nice if MLCAD didn't
insert these 0 ROTATION lines unless they actually contain a rotation
of some sort. This came up before:

I guess now is as good a time as any to submit it as an MLCAD
bug report/enhancement request, so it doesn't get forgotten again.

And while we're on the subject of things coming back to bite people,
whatever happened to the license discussion about these MLCAD
extension commands? Last I remember everyone at ldraw.org was
happy with Steve's recommended wording, and were just awaiting
Michael's approval.

That was about two weeks ago, so I figure now is probably a good time
for a reminder.
Have fun,
