Ok, I see that with this stuff U can do a lots of intresting things.
I'm not telling U remove primitive support in povray and do only nurbs
or subsurfs, I'm saying do them too...

No it's not like that... It's more like, as many ppl use windows
(replace windows with anything else, that's popular), should I support
windows too?
