Okay I have a patch designed and am about ready to implement. But 
I haven't clue what to call the keyword. I have come up with two 
but rejected for various reasons.

What it does:
Its a new pigment (non pattern) that Transforms
the ray and traces that to determine the color of the pigment.
you would be able to make holograms, security monitors
recursive images , surreal images etc.

the syntax would be

PIGMENT_TYPE 
[transmit float]
[filter float]
[depth float]
transforms


the two names i've comeup with are
warp (rejected to parsing confusion}
displace (rejected as not to confuse 
	non exsistant displacement mapping)

any ideas?
