This seems like a rather obtuse restriction.
I'm running PovClipse with povray 3.7 and PovClipse generates a .ini 
file with:

Input_File_Name="C:\home\dick\workspace\runtime-EclipseApplication\b\scene\test.pov"
Output_File_Name="c:\tmp\test.png"
Debug_File="C:\home\dick\workspace\runtime-EclipseApplication\b\.metadata\povray_console_debug.txt"

Everything in .metadata is magic invisible foo. i.e. the povray streams 
get swallowed up by the gui.  But I don't want it to swallow up the 
output .png file. ;)

I'm not sure what to do about this.
