Animating

It could be nice if the dome object could be animated/rotated with frames.
The way it works now makes it good only for single frame projects.

Suggestion:

Do you think it would be possible to add this type of feature:
- To add extra lights, directional mostly, but that take the color and intensity from where they hit the HDR image, i.e. if it is 'sky' it will get blue, if it is a 'red bright spot' that will be the color of the light.

(This come from Marmoset Toolbag 2.0 type of ideas, where it is possible to create lights from the HDR image itself by clicking on it).

Awesome work nevertheless!
Thanks a lot.
