The what? And the user is supposed to know this?
I'm only saying the keyword is wrong. It isn't the camera angle.

Based on what you write I am not sure you understood that there is no need
to have an order for the keywords, only an order in which they take effect.

Do you mean something like:
Camera
Type
if perspective
(right, direction) or angle
sky
...
if orthographic
...
...
type independent identifiers

I always thought that it was because the order directly influenced
the order of transformations of the camera ray. Isn't it ?

Oh, OK. Let me say :
1) projection mode
2) location and look_at
3) sky
4) right and up
5) angle or direction
