The isosurface function doesn't support recursion, but I don't know of 
any reason it would be impossible to make it support it. As for speed, 
it is fast enough to be useful for isosurfaces...and it would be the 
only way to allow custom functions to be used in julia_fractals without 
modifying the program.
