However, this is only one of many possible scenarios. As an alternative, I have implemented a second variant where the box has four handles and all but the circle-shaped one (which acts as a kind of 'master handle') use constrained dragging by default.
I like the first one better. But it's still not ideal. Ideally, I'd like to have a handle in each corner, and have these handles as little constrained as possible (I understand they cannot be absolutely unconstrained or it will be ambiguous, but we need to find some logical compromise).
Some more comments:
You need to implement a _description method for your SPObject so that the statusbar says correctly what kind of object this is (now it just says "Group").
Shift+mousedrag in the 3d tool crashes.
Duplicating a 3D box works, but the handles of the resulting box are in some random position, and dragging them crashes.
Please update doc/keys.xml with the new tool's shortcuts (including shortcuts inside the tool, for which you'll need to add a new section)
