Yes, it is possible to get it working with POV-Ray.  However, it is
quite difficult.  Given the current structure of both Moray and POV-Ray,
this requires writing a GUI-extension DLL for POV-Ray and a whold bunch
of code within the Moray plugin to establish the connection.

You would also have to be very careful not to do any modification of the
scene while the animation is being generated (you wouldn't be able to
generate multiple renders/animations at the same time like you do with
Polyray).  There's no way for me to lock down the scene from edits.

Over time I will probably get this done - it's just that it is a bigger
task than it might appear.
