It is not up to me or anybody else how others waste their time, you just 
have to face the fact that it will never be added to an official version and 
as such it is a waste of time.  You are also free to write your own 
ray-tracer or whatever else you like doing during your free time.

This will not happen.  All you will ever get is some hack.  In fact such a 
hack has existed before in some ancient isosurface code.  The fact that 
nobody supports it any more should tell you something.

No, it is certainly not going to be considered for all he reasons outlined 
so many times in the past and for the millionth time in this thread.
