Actually I don't see a reason why this line of code:

    cone( { 0, 0, 0 }, { 0, 1, 0 }, 2);

couldn't add the cone to the (default) scene.

It could even work something like this:

    Cone( { 0, 0, 0 }, { 0, 1, 0 }, 2)
    .pigment( some pigment def here )
    .finish( some finish def here )
    .rotate(10, 20, 30)
    .scale(0.5, 1.0, 2.0);
