Of enormous use would be the ability to lock an object relative to the
camera's position, which would fix the object along and perpendicular
to the look-at vector of the camera.  The current relative-to-object
feature of the camera just isn't very useful, since if you set the
camera looking at 0,0,0 positioned y-5 relative to an object at 0,0,0
then move the object anywhere but along the y axis, the camera will
no longer be looking at it.

Furthermore, it would be good if Moray supported the additional
camera types available in POV, e.g. omnidirectional, ortho, etc.

I support this, especially the camera types.

I'll be very glad too, I could use another camera types.

Yes, I too support this request. I asked for the camera types in the later
stages of the beta but it was too near release (I hope)
