Hi Justin,
I retain the ability to move forward and back as well.
I am using opensim 0.7.4 Post_fixes on kitely.
After explicitly naming the seats of the vehicle differently, I now get the
following behavior. If NPC sits first, then avatar retains does not lose
left right control. If avatar sits first, and then the NPC sits ... then
avatar loses left right control when standing up.
