What POV does NOW could be accomplished with a good spring cleaning, and 
I agree with you that much of what others want to do can be accomplished 
more easily with outside tools. I do not care for the idea of renderer 
+second-rate image processor +second-rate text converter +second-rate 
animation studio +second-rate... +++.

However, outside programs cannot be used to build shaders. I believe 
development should be focused in that area. I can't see how objects 
would be necessary to program shaders, but someone else might. There is 
a clear need for object-like stuff like MyObject.rad.
