Could the transform manipulator code be generlized to perform this?  
Actually, I can think of a way to hack it in, just add support for 
single-axis-only transform elements, then use the manipulator as it is 
to transform some graphical thing drawn by the camera and light 
objects.  Or, you could map several camera/light properties to different 
transform axises.  But that would probably be an inelegant solution.
