New Object Status?

I don't know if this has been suggested before or not, or if it was in at some time and got taken out for a reason, but the search in the forum didn't bring up anything but a discussion on turning body parts invisible, so here goes :)

What about having a new STATUS attribute on objects that would allow them to remain visible to your AV if they were attached and you went into mouse look? I think, by what I've seen when you enter mouse look (which means I'm almost certainly wrong) that is has to cull attached objects from your view anyway, so maybe having a flag of some sort on those objects that would keep them visible while in mouse look wouldn't be hard?

Er...kay, that's all :)

I like this idea -- in fact, I think it might be in LL's plans. On the new Mac version of SL, you can actually see the avatar's body in Mouselook, but, not the attachments.

Anyway, good idea, I'd love to see it!
