Driving some properties by other properties is not related to that, and this would still require scripting. @Bentley:

Or will that still require some scripting intervention? IE, can I drive a material UV offset from the position of an object, etc?

Brilliant! It will be so much easier than making animations in third party software and then battling with the FBX export. Can I make a suggestion? It may be so obvious I look a fool but I don't care. If you haven't already done it, can we have the ability to move the object axis in relation to the object? Some 3D programs are a bit arbitrary where they put the axis and you need to be able to move it before you can correctly animate something. Move the axis to the hinge position before the door will work correctly for example. Sometimes you need to move it during the animation but I don't think many programs do that so that's probably too much to hope for. Brilliant work chaps! Fantastic! Brilliant!

Along with the curve editor, one very useful feature is adding a capability to trigger scripts on the timeline. It can be used to trigger sound, as an obvious example and many others to create dynamic cut-scenes. It might be a simple addition but the possibility is endless. Awesome!!

And I guess this won't be everything you planned for the 2.6 update... Oh well, than you'll get a new customer a little bit sooner, your fault ;) @THiggins: I thought it would be that way, the animation timeline isn’t something that can be done in a few weeks.
