What?  Modelling?  What's that?  Nothing to do with a raytracer.
POV-Ray is a raytracer.  An engine.  Not a modeller.  Not a car.  I
don't want to have a car, I want to have an engine that I can use in a
boat or a plane or a bike or whatever.  I don't want an integrated
modeller, I want a raytracing engine.

  Besides, how can you think of a portable modeller?  Unless of course
you do it in Perl/Tk or Python/Tk or Tcl/Tk, your modeller will be
platform-dependent.  Which is *bad*.
