You beat me to the other goodies I want, Thromm....! Considering the success that e-on software has been having with the multiple iterations of the Vue line, commercially it would be a good move. Since we have Poser Artist and Poser X as the entry level and mid-range, there is a definite need for a high end. Maybe borrow a concept or three from e-on. Having a fully customizable interface, with selectable schemes that either match or approximate other well used apps would be a godsend for those who have KKRS (Kai Krause Rejection Syndrome... :P ). Have you checked out the Metaform plug-in, btw? It probably won't work in P7 (i'll have to check it out), but it manages to use Python to create meta-particles in Poser. Smoke, fire, water, have all been created successfully (The downside is the same with Poser as a renderer; the process is slow. But it does work). But yes, having a plugin architecture that would allow the code monkeys and monkeyettes the ability to write useful additions would really raise the bar. I hope Yoshi-mocap finishes his program soon. Even adding portable poor man's optical mocap to P7 is going to potentially raise a few eyebrows here and there....
