Ability to control the player's movement vector [Scripting API]

At the moment, you can access a player's position and rotation via components, but you cannot control the direction of movement or the speed.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to control the direction, speed and friction of a player so that I could create things like boots that reduce the friction on ice, or force the player to fly through the sky.

    You could make some pretty cool HALO stuff with this.

    The ability to get and set the velocity of any entity (i.e. other mobs and projectiles as well as the player) from script would be great too. Perhaps that could be folded into this?

    This could be very funny for a lot of minigames and adventure maps!
