I think you misunderstood me...I was saying that it wouldn't be 
impossible to code, but you would have to specifically define what it 
would mean and it wouldn't correspond to any real-life effect.

Well, you can, because a triangle is an object, it just won't correspond 
to anything in reality. And because triangles in a mesh are not separate 
objects, they can only have textures, though you can give the entire 
mesh an interior.
