Hi / Salut ! ;)

Thanks for the great idea and work.
I have a minor issue with linear transitions in the player. I made a presentation consisting only of horizontally aligned same-sized boxes, to produce a rather classical animation with the new slide sliding in from the right edge of the screen while the old one slide out through the left edge. As expected, since the boxes are aligned and have the same size, the linear option produces a perfect translation.
However, if I go back in my presentation using the left arrow or right mouse button, the animation script produces a small zoom out followed by a small zoom in, which is rather annoying and somehow *slightly* slows down the animation (more computation obviously than a mere translation). Any idea why?

Running from Ubuntu / PPA oneiric 64 bits
+ Inkscape 0.48.2 r9819 (Jul 11 2011)
+ Sozi 11.10-1ubuntu0~sunab~oneiric1

Thanks
