Yes, a height field can be used in CSG. The "inside" part of a height field
is everything below it. Keep in mind that it doesn't have surfaces
surrounding this region on the sides, only on the top, so you may get
strange results if the object you're subtracting the height field from
touches parts other than the surface of the height field.
