When "angle" keyword within camera statement appears after "panoramic" keyword
then looks like ignored. But when it is present before "panoramic" then it not
allow values larger then 180 (bouce of perspective limitation). As I understand
documentation both are possible - angle > 180 for panoramic and/or angle after
projection type. Is it my misunderstand, bug within documentation or bug within
povray ?

And what direction is angle defined for panoramic? Vertical or horizontal?
