How far should this go? For variable-pitch props, we could something

I hope you mean this as a joke.
I'm not sure. It's no more extreme than animating the elevator trim
tabs, which people _have_ asked for; in fact, the prop blade pitch is
more visible than the trim-tab position, and could have some useful
educational and debugging

Finally, is now a good time to mention the operating system specific
pilot 3D model, with the passenger seats (to the extent available)
filled with the 3D models of our other supported operating systems ?
All it needs is for the model to have hooks indicating seat positions,

It's very hard to get it exactly right. The problem is that both
JSBSim and YASim sample only one ground position for the elevation
under all gear, but nearly every surface in FlightGear slopes at
