The trouble there is, once the texture is inside the array, there is no
trace of the texture identifier left alongside it.

(Or, more to the point, the texture now has a /new/ identifier,
TexArray[something].)

(Actually, even that is a simplified picture of the matter. What you
/really/ have is a /copy/ of the original texture.)

Also note that if you're starting out with an array of textures, you
might have to deal with something like this:

  #declare TexArray =
    array[12]{
      T_Stone1,
      T_Stone2,
      texture {...},
      T_Stone4,
      ...
    };

No "original" identifier there at all for TexArray[2].
