A lot of parsing, yes, but this mode would probably be of most help when
creating (smaller) scenes from scratch, not when importing mesh files


the scene looks like when coding, much like you can in programs like 3DS
and such.

toggle-button that switches between "trace mode" (traditional) and
"preview mode".....

The "Mode tree" should maybe look something like this:

	  		      Parser
			        |
  		              /   \
           "Standard mode"  -       - "Preview mode"
					 /     \
			     Automatic -         - Manual
