Animated scene states

SHORT TITLE FOR SUGGESTION/BUG/ENHANCEMENT REQUEST
----------------------------------------------------------------

Scene state manager animated

---------------------------------------------------------------
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF YOUR REQUEST
---------------------------------------------------------------

Add the ability to assign certain scene states to certain frames. For instance: at frame 1 enable scene state A, at frame 2 to 4 enable scene state B.

---------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS REQUEST IS IMPORTANT TO YOU
---------------------------------------------------------------

We render architectural images. This feature would make the rendering process (submitting to backburner for instance) much quicker. When submitting there's no need to hide and unhide layers for different frames, bacause the scene state manager takes care of this.
We're aware of the batch render tool. This tool doesn't really animate scene states though and isn't reflected in the viewport.

Gets my vote. Although this isn't too hard to script having it 'core' would make things a little easier.
