I don't think having the perspective view really enhances our understanding of the scene. In reality, it's just going to increase the bandwidth necessary to run this app.
It would be nice if there was an option, at least, to turn multi-perspective off and just see a blended mosaic of straight-on views.
How many hardware guys does it take to change a light bulb? "Well the diagnostics say it's fine buddy, so it's a software problem."
