jah, it's interesting i agree, and would be nice to be able to do. it might also cause great internal chuck misery for Ge to 
implement! i'm sure he'll let us know....

i think for now that's the way it'll have to be, but there is at least a basic linear interpolation (or exterpolation) i could add for 
the writing function that wouldn't be hard. hopefully before the next release....
