There's definitely interest :-)

That's nice to hear :) I've actually finished up this version of the
package its in so I've posted the whole thing to the object collection:
http://lib.povray.org/searchcollection/index2.php?objectName=PointArrays&version=1.0.0&contributorTag=Blue%20Herring
I've also posted a sample image (the same as in the collection) to p.b.i.
The macro that does the bezier sphere_sweep is called PA_Bezier_Sweep.
If you try it or any other macro in the package any feed back is both
welcome and appreciated :)
