Can't have more than one camera for a multi-seat vehicle?

I'm working on a three-seat vehicle. Each seat has its own script specifying sit target and camera. The sit targets work: avs that get on after the pilot are seated in the second and third seats. However, the multiple cameras don't work: everyone uses the pilot's camera view. Am I doing something wrong, or is this not implemented, or is there a bug in SecondLife?

If you have the pilot's seat with the vehicle script and the camera/seat script for the pilot...
And then a seperate script in each seat with camera/sit positioning for the passengers...

Then, the only thing that comes to mind is that the passenger needs to right click on the seat-prim and sit... If I'm remembering right, I think once a pilot is flying if someone just right clicks to sit anywhere on the vehicle they will automatically be assigned the next scripted sit-object in the link order - and use the default (pilot's) camera-angle. But clicking the individual prim "seat" that has your sit/camera script should use that seat's camera positioning. Hope that I'm remembering things right and that helps.

Shoot.

My vehicle has a full-coverage windscreen, so it'd take some tricky camera maneuvering to actually click on any of the seats. I don't suppose the Lindens consider this a bug?
