Hey,

The keyframes for the 'percent along curve' used for path constrained objects don't seem to be able to accept bezier curve controls?! Why not, and is there a way to do something similar?

Hm... I just tried to do similar thing and it workd just fine.

Box moving along path. Constant velocity. In the middle i made percent keyframe and change it to be bezier. When i go to trackview, i'm able to see curves and bezierhandles. And as i change my curve so does my animation change.

If you can't make it to work, i could send you this sample scene.

For the archives:

The problem was that the objects had a linear controller. Switch to a bezier controller, and ... that's right :)

Thanks for sending me the file, it somehow made things click for me :)
