I made a macro to do this quite a while ago, but it is pretty much 
useless, because the render time at a good level of recursion is 
huge(because of the deeply nested difference operations). However, it 
shouldn't be too hard to make a macro which outputs a mesh, this 
wouldn't have that problem.
Of course, then you have the usual problems with meshes.(faceting, high 
memory usage, etc.
