Hi Peter,

I never really thought about this case, but now that you mention it, having the 
fore clipping plane affect the view distance doesn't make a whole lot of sense. 
 There are some changes I need to make to get this to work, which will take a 
while.  I need to think it through.

Cheers,
-Greg
