I'd like to hear about other approaches, too! The main problem when coming up with complete solution for these use cases is, though, that they'll probably require some fundamental changes on the (non-opensource) server side: As far as I know, currently, Object Inventory is served by the Region, and the Region only knows about rezzed Objects. So either a way would have to be added for the Region to proxy non-rezzed Objects to the client or clients would have to be granted direct (or other indirect) access to the asset storage system. I think the same goes for the Object assets themselves, so these restrictions not only apply to manipulating an Object's content, but also to editing the Object itself without rezzing it (e.g. changing it's size, shape or color). I don't know if the AD <https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Agent_Domain>/RD <https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Region_Domain> separation of OGP/AWG/VWRAP will help here, thus CCing their mailing list. Maybe someone from there can shed some light on this. cheers Boroondas
