Comment(by andrewd):

 Maybe all that is needed is to change the wording in Maestro for a few
 things. for example, if the wording for "Transparency Color" was changed
 to "Transparency Color (Monochrome Images)". It's misleading, the way it's
 written now - unless the transparency color will actually work with the
 most current MGOS for all types of images.

 If the hillshade and surface options are actually doing something in
 MapGuide, then they're obviously ok - but if those are actually just
 placeholders for future MapGuide support, I'd consider noting that in
 Maestro somewhere. Even doing something like "Hillshade (MGOS v2.5)",
 indicating the supported version.

 Anyway - this is what I meant about it not functioning as expected. It may
 actually be saving the data, but the end result that the user sees is not
 what is expected. That may or may not be a result of MGOS deficiencies,
 but I think that Maestro would be well served to let the user know.
