Probably not the priority, but exporting to formats supported by 3d-printers
would be nice. I heard that stl is used by many printers.

At the moment, there are few, or maybe no tools if one wants to print a
simple thing with a 3d printer. Cad software is awfully too complicated for
simple things. Povray is simple enough. A little description with povray and an
export would be nice.
