I not only wouldn't mind - I actually think that POV is ripe for a new SDL.
However, at the moment all efforts are geared towards multiprocessing and a
better modularization of the code, so this new SDL thing just has to wait (and
is in fact probably dependent on the modularization job).
That's one reason why, when talking about kludges that would faciliate
implementing OO concepts with macros, I'd say it's not worth investing time
into it.
