  If POV-Ray supported recursive functions, then you could do them with
those.
  In fact, I implemented the Mandelbrot pattern as a recursive function
in a prototype version of POV-Ray 3.5, and it worked ok (it was acceptably
fast).

  It's a bummer the recursion support didn't completely work out.
