I think you guys are misunderstanding me....  Here's what I'm talking about.

If you think someone is cheating, then you follow them in first person
spectator mode.  Execute the admin_ss (modified) command to cause the player
to execute the snapshot command.  It also causes your own computer (the
admin) to execute the snapshot command so you have your own copy of the view
the player SHOULD have been seeing.  I'm not talking about having the server
do anything but send the commands to the appropriate clients.
