Point of View would certainly be fun! The main issue really is that it requires a whole extra set of parts for the characters involved, depending on the exact nature of the scenes of course. Since Point of View is also by nature close-up, it also requires more detailed graphics, though that hopefully won't be an issue (v0.3 is aiming for better graphics anyway).
While I'm not sure v0.3 will have anything beyond the current side-on view, I'm hoping to support the possibility of different character views so that characters can eventually have the pieces needed to view them from different angles, as this has the added bonus that characters would be able to look more like they're turning or moving in different directions, as opposed to always left to right.
But yeah, I love point of view artwork (not many good movies or animations out there unfortunately), so it's definitely something I'm personally interested, just a matter of having all the parts required. I think that it does become a fetish though, since it depends on whose point of view you're seeing the scene from, for example, a straight guy might not enjoy seeing Krystal being slammed by a SharpClaw Warrior if the view is from Krystal's perspective. So it would probably need some kind of filtering if such shots were prolonged (as opposed to simply being brief shots for effect/variety), but it's all do-able I think since it could just be separated into Point of View (Female) and Point of View (Male).
