I couldn't have stated the situation better myself. ;-)

The spirit of my earlier statements/questions/replies was honestly one of,"Hey,
let's put our heads together and see if we might be able to solve this!"
Nothing more was intended. But the general idea became, "Solve what?? What
problem??" Argumentation ensued. Reminds me of the story of the 'Emperor with
no clothes'--the Emperor stands there naked, thinking that he's fully clothed,
while others look and scratch their heads, wondering why he doesn't realize
that there might be a...problem. I'm sure he argued the point...

Can the current cutaway_textures 'situation' be 're-worked'?  (Notice the
less-inflammatory language.) Beats me!! Doesn't sound like it can; and I
understand why. Well, I *mostly* understand, anyway...
