Too much for the first release.

I mean, sure, I could withhold the entire Video Cue to add a few more  
features, but then there'd be all the finished features sitting  
around with nothing to do!  :)

My philosophy is to release a few simple steps at a time.  I believe  
it keeps things more stable, and it certainly gets the features into  
your hands faster.

Also, as regards new features for the Video Cue, I'm not sure how far  
I'm going to take it.  My goal isn't necessarily to recreate, say,  
Quartz Composer.  My gut tells me to keep the Video Cue pretty  
straightforward, which should still cover 90% of the cases.  For more  
complex needs I think it may be better to add a Quartz Composer cue  
and other cues that can feed it input.
