You could probably do this:

Render three versions of each image, one with only the red, one with
only the green, and one with only the blue (use the Define command
line switch to control the render).

Take the resulting three images, and base a pigment_pattern on each
one.  Combine the results.  This enables you to set varying levels
of discrete color.

Another trick you would try would be to define where you camera is,
then develop a macro which takes the specs for a primitive and builds
an outline around it; you will need to know the camera specs in order
to correctly position the outline object.
