  By your very definition it is not a propety of the surface. Therefore
it should be an interior funtion of the solid object and not a surface
property like pigments, finishes, and textures. It is contrary to the
model and the way Pov should treat behaviour like this. If it is to be
implemented let's do it correctly or not at all.
