Must admit that it would be kind of neet but I don't think it's possible
since povray solves the blob intersection with an equation rather than with
marchingcubes or recusive subdivision. I think the later one should be
implemented in the future though. It works the same as the isosurface patch
but with a special blob feature and would allow us to use toruses and some
other objects as blobs.
