No, I think the problem we are facing is complicated enough without
considering these things. I'm also fairly sure that while it might be
possible to find existing formats for skeletal meshes that it would be
possible to support, such formats would not include such advanced features
(or specifications on how to implement them).

I'm not working on a graphical bone-editor, so restrictions on joints is not
my department. Might be relevant for John VanSickle though.

Again, way too complicated when we don't even have the basics down yet.
