Another VERY useful, but probably more difficult to implement feature
would be to set the cursor on a declaration of an identifier. For
example if one have

  sphere {
    0, 1
    texture { T_Stone2 }
  }

a right click on "T_Stone2" allows going to its declaration. This
declaration could be above in the same file or in a previously
included file, so the code has to be parsed for it.
