It came to me that displacement mapping is almost like isosurfaces. For 
example, a displacement mapped sphere is an isosurface described by
a sphere + displacement function. So I would not call it impossible (or
only for meshes) but "just" computationally heavy.

By the way, unless you are looking carefully at borders, displacement 
mapping is just undistinguishable from normal fudging.
