Tim, objects scale around their centers, and you moved the
center of the object offscreen. In this particuliar case I
haven't found a particuliar setting that would change
Transform Panel's Scale edit boxes to do something other
than changing the local transform's scale, but if you expected
to scale around the center of the geometry that operation requires
changing more than 3 parameters of the scaling. This is
what the manipulator does if you use it in COG mode.
We'll probably add in the future a mini transform panel
in the keying panel area to add some flexibity with references,
but let's keep in mind the keying panel is meant for animating,
not for modeling, and isn't changing more parameters in your
back, or adding operators, the way that the Transform Panel is
to compensate for centers and references. It's the 'true'
data of the object. It's exactly what you get in the maya channel
box, for example.
