It's not easy to explain indeed, let's take a square object for example,
when no transformation has been given to the square,
  [rotate 45 1 0 0] will rotate the square around the line at the center 
of the square height.

  By adding [rotate 45 0 0 1], [rotate 45 1 0 0] won't rotate anymore on 
square's x axis,
but on some axis given by the original object's coordinates,
in our example the new square's x rotating axis
is the line defined by opposite corners of the square.

I'd like to find a way to always rotate the object on it's own axis,
  and not the axis defined by the object's original orientation,
'local transform' are not really the good words for that,
but didn't found another ones

cumulating rotate object gives same result as using a single rotate object,

thanks for the help
