Thank you for the explanation and hint about banded calk being possible. 
I now have a much better understanding our tiling pattern.

As for a more complete update of the tiling.pov example code, I believe 
changing the following two lines from :

#write (MapFile, "    [",str(V2/TileTypes,5,4)," rgb <", vstr(3, 
ThisColor,", ", 0,4),">]\n")
#write (MapFile, "    [",str((V2+incre)/TileTypes,5,4)," rgb <", vstr(3, 
ThisColor,", ", 0,4),">]\n")

to :

#write (MapFile, "    [(",str(V2,0,3),"/",str(TileTypes,0,0),") rgb <", 
vstr(3, ThisColor,", ", 0,4),">]\n")
#write (MapFile, " 
[(",str(V2,0,3),"+",str(incre,0,3),")/",str(TileTypes,0,0)," rgb <", 
vstr(3, ThisColor,", ", 0,4),">]\n")


implements the fractional map indexes you suggested.
