No, no, no.....you really got me wrong there: You still could do like this:
object{ MySphere rotate y*20}. The new thing would be that you could define
methods _if_you_want_ that you could call when needed.

OO-scripting should not replace the current (very user-friendly) scripting - it
should be a complement. A tool you could use if you need to do more advanced
stuff.
