Christopher Huff once made a version of POV which supported such a 
feature. Here's the link to the discussion:

http://news.povray.org/cjameshuff-11441F.16053826022005%40news.povray.org

It looks like all the subsequent links are broken.

I think that was the same patch I was supposed to write a tut about, but 
felt that the new blob was too 'broken' to use, so I opted to write 
about it when it was fixed. Needless to say (because the current 
Mega-POV has no 'blob2'), I didn't finish the tutorial.
