I'm not sure about the possibility of this, but wouldn't it be
useful if partial traces are positioned correctly in the
resulting file?
I'm not sure if that would actually be of much use, but I'd
think that it could be helpful when rendering a scene and
later another one, of which some section will be superimposed
over the old image...
But I'm no expert on that field, and I've never ran into trouble
the way it is. If possible, it might at least be useful for POV-Ray 4.
