Hi Sujay,

pfEngine and pfFlux _does_ make it possible to easily implement morphing,
but your quite right in that the flt-loader does not translate
flt-morph-nodes into pfEngine and pfFlux.

My problem is how I can get the flt-morph-data from the flt-file without
writing my own loader (which I actually will start doing today anyway :(
