  Preview Mode for POV-Ray

The only annoying thing I run into when using POV-ray is the inability to
preview my scenes.  I spend a seemingly endless amount of time rendering,
re-rendering, re-rendering,... just to get the camera and lighting position
I need.

OpenGL offers an easy to implement, raster scan technology that could be
(easily?) implemented in POV-Ray.  It would be ideal for generating previews
so the user could determine camera, lighting, etc and then do the final
render with the ray-tracer.  If I knew how to do C++, I'd do it myself but
since I don't, is there anyone out there who would like to add this
IMMENSELY useful feature to POV?

Please, please, please, .....
