I've actually added the feature that you're looking for... I call it an
"image_pattern". But you won't find it in the official version.
As soon as POV 3.1 becomes official, I'll get out a beta version of my
changes (and hopefully they'll make it in some form into the official
version).
My other changes to POV include:
UV mapping
new mesh syntax - for smaller files - developed with Thomas Baier's help
-Nathan Kopp
