The Scenemodels database stores these offsets where needed and we're
prepared to automatically adjust object elevations to the current
Terrain whenever required. In fact we're actually doing this every
once in a while .... so, if the model and/or object you submitted
several weeks or months ago looks really funny now (or in the near
future), you might have forgotten to tell us about the offset :-)
