For really smooth handling of reversing a transition only a short way  
in, it may be desirable to specify transition velocity rather than  
duration. Another possibility is Hyatt's suggestion of detecting  
reversal, since that is typically the only way you see a very small  
transition over a long duration.

I'm hoping you are objecting only to the "full duration" part of the  
above, not starting from the current (possibly mid-transition) state  
when beginning a new transition.
