Media work very well with meshes, even non closed ones. There's really
nothing special here.
See my (and other people's) subsurface scattering posts in p.b.i. of some
weeks ago. The head is an open mesh. Yep, it looks funky where the mesh is
open but nobody's obliged to look there.

Now repeat after me : "Test first, then answer, Test first, then answer..."
