So I would set a bookmark for the camera at the position I want it to be?

Exactly.

Is there any safety related reason I shouldn't be able to access the camera in the make_scene? Perhaps there is a way to do this?

The main reason is that there may be multiple cameras, and we don't know what kind they are.

I just want to specify the initial camera position so the model is in the view (this will make benchmarks easier...)

I completely agree. I've wanted the same thing too. For a short-term solution I recommend specifying them on the command line per James' suggestion. James and/or I can try to take a look at it soon.
