     In case you're curious, the old sculpt/animate3 can do this. The
  command is called 'unslice'. And the animation capability is a really
  well thought out hierarchical system. Objects and paths can be 'attached'
  to other object and/or paths, ad-infinitum. (meaning to a deeper level than
  I tried ;-) This means that the articulation of a finger can be 'attached'
  to a hand. And the hand can be 'attached' to a wrist etc. And each part
  can have motion RELATIVE to the place it is attached. 

     It is an EXCELLENT product. When I can scrape enough $$$ together, I am
  going to get Sculpt4D.
