Subject: Saving parameter key values to Pose File without delta influences

I'm looking for a way to extract the morph target parameter key values in Python without the influence of JCM/ERC deltas. I'm trying to create a Full Body Morph pose file which includes the BODY actor valueParms and all BodyPart actor scales. I can create the file (I use scene.SaveLibraryPose() to create the PNG icon for me then overwrite the PZ2 file), but if I include the targetGeom parameters from the BodyPart actors, the morph effects are doubled (or worse in JCM cases) when I apply the pose file after resetting the figure morphs and pose. I can see, when I look at the file created, that the partial body morph parameters show the non-zero values imposed by the BODY valueParm full body morph rather than the zero key values shown for those parameters in Poser. I'm running on a Mac and have worked out how to get Python to display a proper Mac OS X file save dialog supporting filename entry and directory browsing as well as other Finder plug-ins. If anyone's interested in this bit, please let me know. Can anyone help with the parameter values? Ockham? Anyone?
