I think allowing user control is a very good thing. Watching an animation
unfold is one thing, but being able to interact with it is much better.

I think it would take me a couple of hours to hack my MGHgrAnimator class
into something that does what you want. (I might just have a go, because I
think it would be pretty cool. On the other hand, I might do some work...)
As I said before, the animation functionality is in the superclass,
MGHgrAnimatorBase. To apply it to a different situation one just has to
override MGHgrAnimatorBase's methods (CountFrames, Display, Play, PlayNext,
PlayNext, etc) for the particular situation.
