That's true of the perspective and orthographic cameras, but at least 
some of the others cannot have this basis (especially those that allow a 
viewing angle of more than 180!).  So, given that the POV-Ray code 
structure evidently already has this flexibility, a VR camera shouldn't 
be that difficult to integrate.
