    I really like the TrackIR behavior for the internal cameras with how you can rotate the camera to face any direction, and use TrackIR to look around from there. Super useful when shunting in both directions. I'd love to have that TrackIR behavior enabled for external cameras, especially for the front and rear camera (number 3 key), and the free camera (number 8 key). The boom cameras (number 2 key) are not that important, but if it's easy to implement then why not :)

    In many cases the external cameras are used for first person tasks, so it makes sense to have TrackIR available here too.

    And a little bonus use case: The front and rear external cameras (number 3 key) can be placed at either end of the BR 363 to emulate driving a shunter with a remote control. This is when I noticed that TrackIR is not enabled externally, and missed being able to look around while coupling etc. Here are some real life examples:
