Has anyone ever tried to make a mirascope in POV-Ray?

Is there a setting that needs to the right value or a feature that needs to be
enabled for something like that to work?

Warp commented (on parabolic mirrors in general) that, "POV-Ray can make
perfectly parabolic mirrors and reflect light from them. It's far from
impossible."
