Maybe I should reclarify.  I don't think actually fully parsing the scene is
feasible anytime soon, especially with functions, but building a parse tree
is.  Which would allow for manipulation of the scene language itself.  This
could then be rewritten and let POV actually do the full parse to generate
the scene.  I can't think of a good reason for actually evaluating the
scene.
