Check out the model xml wrapper to see what is and is not being animated. I don't think that is currently possible. Probably it just requires an addition to the property tree from the lighting code. What we do have is certainly a major improvement over nothing. Which reminds me that I really need to go ahead and make on of these for each of my own models.
