Chime has an extended command called 'scale3d'

Actually, I thought it was a script command. But looking at chime
references on the web, it looks like it is an attribute that is passed to
the plug-in directly. To me, that seems like a rather strange way to
implement it, but if that is the way they wanted to do it ...

Q: When scale3d is specified, does that mean that 'zoom' is disabled?

Q: If zoom is not disabled, does 'zoom 100' return to the original scale3d
parameter?

Q: Is there no script command available to provide the same functionality?

Q: Should there be a script command that provides the same functionality?


On further investigation I see that the following chime extensions are all
done as attributes to the <embed> tag
  scale3d, color3d, options3d

And I will be more blunt ... to me that seems like the *wrong* way to do
it. There is already a mechanism for controlling these kinds of things ...
the scripting language. What is the value of introducing another mechanism
that uses another syntax and is less flexible?

If at all possible, I do not want to introduce these things as applet
parameters.

What do you think about adding them to the scripting language instead?
