I guess I wasn't very clear earlier about uv mapping with the lathe object.
I think the documentation is lacking when it comes to examples of how to do
UV mapping for the lathe and SOR objects.  It is entirely unclear how to
scale the images and how to specify specific areas on the objects.  For
example, Say I wanted to paste my companies logo on a Lathe coffee cup
object.  Right now without direction from the documentation, this isn't
very clear.  I can apply the image, but I cannot scale it or place it very
specifically.  Currently, the png logo image completely wraps the lathe
object.  I would like to size it and place it 90 degrees from the cup
handle.

So, this is the type of example I am looking for.  The documentation or
example files should include this type of operation.
