MoveEntity the odd one out

Just wondering why MoveEntity seems to be the only command to position/scale/rotate an entity that doesn't have an optional 'Global' parameter.

Currently, you can only move an entity by it's parent's unit scale - if the parent has differing x/y/z scales, moving a child by a consistent rate on the x/y/z axis is a pain. I thought there'd be a Global param to allow movement by world units.

Maybe of limited use, it just seems a bit inconsistent not to have the option...
