I have set a perspective transform, when I did not the zPosition did
not have any effect.

Just to be clearer, I see the transform applied correctly, I just
don't get the animation of that property of the layer.

I've had some answer off list that we should expect more details soon
of what we can and can't do with the layer of a view.
