This isn't a bug, or a feature request, or a functionality issue, its
more a case of implementation. Currently material IPO's are not
evaluated per frame for dupliframes when rendered. Simple scenario: 100
dupliframed cubes with one material assigned. If a material IPO is
assigned to this cube that changes its color from green to red over
those 100 frames, shouldn't those 100 cubes display as having 100
different shades of color? Currently when you render its evaluated as
though they are real objects each with the same material on every frame,
but other IPO's (i.e. Loc, Rot, Size) aren't evaluated this way. Again
this doesn't seem like a bug, it just seems like a piece of the
implementation is missing. Not sure who would be interested in looking
at this, but it might be worth doing before release else I'll be forced
to add it to the bug tracker :P :D
