Looks good so far.

You should still get the phong interaction with image_map if you specify it
in the finish.  The difference would be that you could have a different
phong value for the image and for the rest of the button with image_pattern.

If you are having dificulty getting the shape you want with CSG, you may
want to look at 'surface of revolution' or 'lathe'
