Just a quick reply and I am sure that someone will answer more fully later.
As a user of Moray and Bishop3D (PovRay Modellers). PovRay images can be 
displayed in a viewport in those programs. It requires a GUIExtension 
which is referenced in pvengine.ini

E.g.
[GUIExtensions]
UseExtensions=1

ExtDll17=C:\Program Files (x86)\Bishop3D\Bishop3DPovComm.dll
ExtDll18=C:\Graphics\Moray For Windows\MorayCtrl.DLL

As for the details I am sorry but I cannot help there.
