Hmmm.   It's always the little things, isn't it.

Although POV-Ray was and of course still is primarily a raytracing program for
creating photorealistic images, I think that over the last 25 years, its users
have demonstrated that there are other purposes - many directly related and
incidental to creating such scenes - and other less so.

I think that with some of the recent discussions about why people use POV-Ray,
and trying to increase interest in using POV-Ray, it would be of interest to the
community and the developers to make POV-Ray as user-friendly and appealing to
use as possible.

I think people would much rather tell others "I (choose to) use POV-Ray because
....  XYZ", rather than "Well, POV-Ray can't do that, but...."

I'm just saying that POV-Ray has a market to compete in.
How it will do that is something that we can have friendly discussions about.
