Agreed - a good example is abyss.pov in the 3.5 beta 1 distribution - it
doesn't even have associated .ini file and requires a 'non-standard' aspect
ratio - if it were possible to, at the very least, encode the output
aspect-ratio into the .pov it would prevent the problem I discovered - queue
all the sample scenes and render them at 320x240 and abyss.pov comes out all
squished... IMO, this shouldn't happen...
