I agree that the interface is skimpy. Someone mentioned earlier that there appears to be no way to create a figure via script. I maybe wrong about that. Plus I'd love some pipeline intercepts. Events are also not script bound. I'd like to capture the select item event for example. Hopefully we can pass on API requests to CL for their next release. It could also be that making some of this stuff public makes poser run bad ie exposing the render pipeline might cause undesirable results and the less outside people mess with it, the less it screws up.
