Each section in the motion graph (x,y,z,h,p,b,sx,sy,sz) is or should be
independently keyframeable. Therefore, there are nine channels that we'd
like to see broken out as individual ones.

Animating the pivot point, I suppose, might be useful. Again, my choice
would be to allow animation of EVERY aspect (parenting, for instance).
Plugins fill the gap for a time, but all of these things should be woven
into the base package.
