  Parse storage.

Hello, just me and my wild ideas here.
I have been working a lot with macro's and creating lot's of objects(See
my fireworks posts)
While doing this, I have to check lightsourses and fog settings, and
since the fireworks are lightsources I need to wait for parse every
time.
Now I wondered, is there a possibility to add something of a expander to
pov?

By storing the parsed data in a new file, ex. example.pov ->example.par
->example.tga

This could be specified with a command line argument, or a setting in
global_settings {
  write_parse true
  load_parse false
}

This is only an idea, I'm not sure if it'd work, or if it is implemented
somewhere already, but I think it might come in hadny in several cases.
