Are bones' geosets and geoset animations functional?

[loktar]

So as some of you may know, a bone can reference a geoset (or "multiple") and a geoset animation. AFAIK this has no function whatsoever. Or am I wrong? I ask because if they're not functional, I can ignore/delete them in my model optimizer.

I have not seen any real use for those flags on a bone and RMS and Magos can probably automatically edit that flag to suit the right needs.
I however would we hesitant to delete them as they might be needed for some syntax in the never-ending MDXL format.

Hmm yeah, one example where I would like to remove them is when removing unused geoset animations. Currently they aren't removed if they're still referred to by a bone, but it seems kinda useless.
