[Golist] go3d and alpha tweens...

[John Grden]

Part of the issue is that you don't change alpha on a 3d object - a  
do3d only has geometry.  What you need to do is tween the material's  
source, and that's where this all gets interesting since we'd have to  
first check the material type to make sure it was a MovieMaterial etc

That's why u didn't see support for alpha - tween3d focuses on  
tweening the properties of a diplayOnject3D.  But I'd love fight out  
how to elegantly support materials.  One issue with this is that we'd  
have to force a redraw of the material since it would be visually  
changing, and that of course would tag CPU.  So it really would  
require some thought
