  The solution is, of course, using a HUGE spherical component which center
is far away and its radius is equally large (so that the surface of the
sphere is located where we want it).

  This solution would work good, but there's a little problem. I have done
this before (I wanted a water plane) and got some odd problems. It seems that
if a component is too large, some weird artifacts appear (perhaps due to
accuracy problems).
  I have reported this but it seems that there isn't any easy solution
available.
